Summary

Culture may try to convince us that it’s better to be alone, but the truth is marriage is still winning. The real question is: are you ready for it? In Week 5 of Relationship Goals: In Real Life, Pastor Michael Todd reminds us that marriage works 100% of the time when we do it God’s way. While culture often teaches that it’s better to marry than to burn with lust, Pastor Mike challenges us to pursue the greater option - developing self-control and surrendering our lives fully to God.This message reminds wives that they are anointed for their husbands and encourages men to provide safety, leadership, and covering for their wives. Whether you are single, dating, or married, this message will challenge you to prepare your heart, build godly character, and become the person God is calling you to be before stepping into the covenant of marriage.
