great quote

on the topic of getting married at a young age:

“You wanna know why I got married? Here’s the deal: The wisest man in the Bible, the strongest man in the Bible, and the godliest man in the Bible all fell into sexual sin. For me to stay engaged to Bridget from the time I was a sophomore until I graduated from college was for me to expect myself to be wiser than Solomon, stronger than Samson, and more godly than David- and I was neither- so we got married.” Voddie Baucham Jr.

Ha! So great! I wish our church members and- dare I say- church leaders would remember that when we teach our children that a college degree is more important than a marriage.

Baucham then went on to say that when we teach our children that, then we teach them to make other things higher priorities than their marriages for the rest of their lives.
