Love, Marriage, and Family: A Biblical Perspective for Stronger Homes

In this insightful episode, Herbie Newell and Dr. Rick Morton explore the significance of Valentine's Day through the lens of Christian values, emphasizing the importance of fighting for the sanctity of marriage and life. As advocates for God's word, they discuss how embracing love in the Biblically prescribed manner contributes to the strength of marriages and, subsequently, forms a foundation for providing strong, stable homes for children. The conversation extends to the profound impact of these principles on caring for vulnerable children, stressing the role of a godly marriage in demonstrating love and stability. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on the broader implications of their relationships, recognizing the responsibility to create a nurturing environment based on God's word, ultimately contributing to a better, more stable world for children and those committed to caring for them.HOSTHerbie Newell is the President & Executive Director of Lifeline Children’s Services and its ministry arms.CO-HOSTRick Morton is the Vice President of Engagement at Lifeline Children's Services.RESOURCESObedience to God's call to care for those who are vulnerable means that our churches will have members who are walking the paths of foster care or adoption.
