Marriage: Inviting Jesus Into the Pain

📖 Introduction

Marriage is a sacred covenant designed by God, a profound union of two lives becoming one. It is often depicted as a joyous journey, but the reality is that every marriage faces challenges, pain, and moments of brokenness. In those difficult times, the temptation is to retreat into silence, frustration, or despair. Yet, the beauty of a Christ-centered marriage is found not in perfection but in inviting Jesus into the pain. When we make space for Him, He speaks comfort and truth, transforming wounds into opportunities for healing and growth.

This 7-day study is crafted to help you intentionally welcome Jesus into the hard places of your marriage story. Whether you are struggling with unresolved conflict, unmet expectations, or the scars of past hurts, Jesus is there with His love and grace. Each day, through Scripture and reflection, you will be encouraged to lean into His presence, allowing Him to bring peace where there is turmoil and hope where there is despair.

Jesus understands pain intimately—and His Word is full of promises to restore and redeem. As you journey through this study, remember that you and your spouse are not alone. The God of all comfort (2 Corinthians 1:3) is ready to speak healing and truth into your relationship. Together, you will explore passages that offer divine wisdom on love, forgiveness, and unity, building a foundation that can hold strong through every storm. Welcome Jesus into your marriage pain; let His voice soften hearts, mend brokenness, and deepen your commitment to one another and to Him.
