Rebuilding Us: Marriage Podcast
Dana CheIs Your Marriage an Idol?
August 6, 2024 ● 25 minShare this episode
Most Christian couples would never think of their spouse or their marriage as an idol. But chances are good that that is exactly what happens in many relationships. On this episode we define what idolatry is in our modern world and how we easily fall into it. What is idolatry in the context of marriage? What are the dangers of making marriage an idol and how do you destroy the idol without destroying the relationship?
Throughout the episode, I discuss the dangers of making marriage or a spouse an idol and the potential pitfalls when God is not in the rightful place. The discussion also warns against maintaining a "transactional" relationship with God, seeking him just for needs instead of an ongoing relationship just because. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own relationships and seek God's presence to address any idols in their lives.

A Prayer for Overcoming Doubt with Divine Assurance - Your Daily Prayer - September 19
One morning, in my study of 1 Thessalonians, I read these words from Paul in 5:1-11, lingering over our key verse, “But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.” As he often does, Paul reminds believers that they are soldiers in God’s army and must prepare and protect themselves for battle.
