    There are many misunderstandings about Paul's words on marriage and divorce. Looking at them in the context of the situation they were written in, and context of our purpose as redeemed humans offers us some real wisdom.

First he addresses a question about marriage. If you look at the chapter as a whole the context might ...read more

In the context of an overly-sexualized society, and of a ...read more
