According to Google, the primary Greek word for "divorce" in the New Testament is ἀπολύω (apoluo), which can also mean "to release, to set free, or to put away." In this episode, we dive deep into the topic of divorce—a reality in countless lives but is often misunderstood or ignored in Christian circles.
Also, we’ll explore:
-Biblical grounds for divorce – What does Scripture actually say about divorce and remarriage and when is it permitted?
-The harmful effects of divorce – From emotional and spiritual trauma to the impact on children and future generations, we’ll unpack the often-unseen consequences of breaking the marital covenant.
-Statistics and common reasons for divorce – Why are so many marriages ending? We’ll look at real data and root issues like infidelity, communication breakdowns, financial stress, and more.
-The sacredness of the marriage vow – A powerful reminder that marriage isn’t just a contract—it's a covenant before God. We’ll challenge you to reflect on your vows and the importance of perseverance, grace, and commitment.
-Christ as the foundation – Ultimately, we’ll encourage couples to fight for their marriages not with their own strength, but with Christ at the center, trusting in His power to restore, heal, and redeem even the most broken situations.
Whether you’re married, divorced, or somewhere in between, this episode offers biblical truth, practical wisdom, and hopeful encouragement for anyone seeking to honor God in their relationships.
