In modern times, the phrase "till death do us part" transcends its religious origins and is now often included in wedding vows as a customary expression of commitment and endurance in marriages. Many couples, regardless of their religious beliefs or practices, choose to include this phrase in their wedding ceremonies as a symbol of their intent to maintain a lifelong commitment to one another. The inclusion of this phrase can also serve as a reminder of the seriousness, and depth, of the commitment being made; even when divorce is legally recognized as an option. It is also important to note that though the inclusion of the phrase "till death do us part" in wedding ceremonies does not necessarily reflect a strict adherence to the religious beliefs or doctrines associated with it, it does, however, represent a deeper commitment/dedication to the lifelong union between two individuals. The biblical principle of "until death do us part" emphasizes the solemnity and permanence of the marital bond. Couples may express their intention to remain faithful and committed to one another throughout their lives, regardless of the challenges and obstacles they may face. The phrase signifies a promise to uphold the marriage covenant until death separates them. It reflects the understanding that marriage is a sacred and enduring bond that requires love, sacrifice, and ongoing dedication. This book guides couples in their keeping of those sacred vows through enlightened direction stemming from years of marriage conferences - filled and led with God's wisdom. The reader will receive counsel in everything from recognizing who they are and what they will be bringing to the union; building a marriage after the ceremony; the significance of communication; and the sacrifices needed to be made in order to maintain and grow a healthy marital relationship.

For years I wondered what was the still voice I heard in my head, it was always peaceful. But, yet the noise of daily busy life would overpower the peaceful voice. Quickly my brain would become full of chaos and on with the day I would go. Well at some point that quiet still voice decided to speak louder, and I decided to listen, sadly it wasn't until I was in the heat of the battle. Many times we think we know the right thing to do and never know where that decision might lead us. Proverbs 3:5-6 says Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight. I am here to tell you that it does not matter when you make the decision to trust in the LORD, he will be there.

She attended Concordia University in Wisconsin, where she earned her master's in business management and communication and she attended a biblical course every semester of different faiths, which she credits for the seed that was planted to stay in touch with her spiritual side. She has always journalled but was prompted to write a book as she began her search for purpose. She didn't know what the book would be about at first, but as she continued through her journey it formed itself. Clarice was inspired to write and share her spiritual journey in hopes that it will help others understand those nudges that are not always understood and your answers to gut instinct.

"Strengthen your relationships--with family, partners, friends, and others--and find deeper satisfaction by learning to love better. Humans are meant to love and be loved, but so often we fall short at loving well. We take others for granted. We make assumptions. We forget to show our affection. We grow lazy. We so often fail in our relationships with our families, our partners, our friends, and fellow humans because we are lazy in our love for one another, says Keion Henderson, pastor of the mega-church Lighthouse Church in Houston. Lazy love prevents us from experiencing the deep, soulful fulfillment we long to know. It keeps us from being known and enjoyed by those around us. And it stops us from stepping out to give who we are without expecting anything in return. In his new book Lazy Love, Henderson unpacks the four kinds of love mentioned in the Bible-eros, or attraction; phileo, or friendship; storge, or familial; and agape, or spiritual love-and shows readers how each shapes our relationships and our lives. He also encourages readers to uncover the unhealthy practices that often lead to damaged or broken relationships and helps reader break free of the patterns that keep us from loving well. The good news is that each of us can learn to love better and to improve our relationships-with our partners, our children, our friends, our co-workers, and our neighbors. Lazy Love will help readers become better at loving others in all areas of their lives"--

Although the institution of marriage has been in existence since the creation of the human race, mankind has struggled to achieve the peace and security that this institution is supposed to offer. Many books have been written and numerous seminars and conferences have been held to answer the often asked question 'What is the recipe for a blissful marriage?', and although many suggestions have been offered, the rate of divorce continues to increase. The author relentlessly pursued and researched this line of study, taking him back to the first human creation, bringing him nearer to the origin of this institution and its originator. Throughout the ages, many billions of people have followed this tradition in which the lawful reproductions of the human race have been ensured. As time elapsed and man went astray from the divine guidance that came to him, the originator sends constant reminders of the rules, as once sent to the prophets that are supposed to guide us. However, again and again we have chosen to ignore these rules that are supposed to secure that peaceful, happy, tranquil, and durable relationship between husband and wife. Cultural Perception of Marriage among Muslims is filled with advice and a recipe for success for people of all races and colours, religion and locales, of how a blissful marriage can be achieved when drawn from the divine text. So whether you are married or hope to get married one day, this book will be of great benefit and a blessing. This book is to be studied and used as a point of reference in order to avoid the pitfalls of disunity and disagreement and separation between a husband and wife, avoiding a problematic marriage.
