Welcome to the Ransom Heart Podcast. This is Craig McConnell. What we've done last

week and now this week is taking some of the best questions that people have

asked in our live audience during the Love and War tour.

So today again is a couple of questions that were thrown their way and John and Stacey's responses to those questions.

And we really think this is some great stuff just captured live and really hope that it encourages you.

I just have a question in regards to Christians in marriage and your thoughts on why are we not doing any better than the world in regards to relationships.

If the best thing that we can bring into the marriage is a relationship with Jesus, why are we falling so short as Christians?

Oh, two reasons.

Go ahead.

Go ahead. You want me to go?

You're looking at me.

Okay, a couple of thoughts on that.

One is that I want to know what kind of Christians.

You know, who's the person's at the barn is saying, yes, I'm a Christian and just what kind of Christians I mean really

are they walking with God Christians or they just or they don't they're just I'm

an American so I'm a Christian and And the other thing is is that Christian marriages are in the

bullseye of the enemy.

Absolutely. We're in the crosshairs of the enemy. I think it's harder for Christians because one thing we have so much pressure that we want to have a model marriage

We want to look good to the neighbors the family their friends we don't want to have trouble

But the other thing is that yeah the enemy hates marriage, he particularly

hates Christian marriage because of the picture of God and the Trinity and Christ and

his church that it presents. And for some, I mean there's an awakening going on and look at us all here
