Summary
Your marriage is not just being affected by what’s happening inside of it…
…it’s being formed by the people surrounding it.Jesus made it clear—He did not come to bring peace, but division.
Not chaos… but a dividing line between belief and unbelief.And if you don’t understand that division,you will stay connected to relationships that are spiritually unqualified to speak into your covenant.We break down:
- Why Jesus references Book of Micah in the Gospels
- The difference between Old Covenant corruption and New Covenant division
- How moral corruption spreads through relationships into the household
- Why “good people” can still produce bad fruit in your life
- The biblical standard for identifying who should (and should not) have influence in your marriage

| 1:30.1 | your spirit hears the way in the gravity. And then I'm going to read it in context so that way |
