Getting ready for marriage and home building mean much more than reading a manual relating to their physical aspects. When a man and woman are united in marriage, they enter into a life contract which is not to be violated. It should not be entered into lightly or inadvisably. Incredibly, one is schooled for fifteen to twenty years, qualifying for business or the professions, while spending almost no time in preparation for marriage and home building. The future of our country, as well as the church of our Lord, depends on stalwart Christian homes, consecrated Christian families, and the exaltation of Christian principles concerning marriage, parenthood, and the home. The Christian faith is the greatest guarantee of attaining the highest possible happiness in marriage.
