piece on marriage in America

Interesting, and scary, piece on marriage: http://www.cnn.com/2010/OPINION/12/16/ward.sears.marriage/

The dirty truth is that the divorce rate among self-professed Christians are slightly higher than the rate for non-Christians. I'm an adult child of divorce [first time I've typed that] determined to make certain that my kids don't have to call themselves that.

Knowing that there are reasons for divorce and knowing wonderful second marriages, as believers the burden of these conversations fall upon us. We need to teach and preach and listen to those in difficult marriages and those who are no longer married. Or there will be more broken homes, children raising themselves and statistics like those on the link.
