Was Man Really Made for Marriage? (Knotted Part 2)

Most men enter relationships looking for something. A sense of purpose. A place to belong. Someone to make the unsettled feeling go away. But what if that's exactly the wrong way to start?In this message from our KNOTTED series, we go back to Genesis 2 and look at what God does with the man before the woman ever arrives. He gives him a place to rest, work that matters, and a charge to keep what he's been given. The Hebrew words for work and keep, abad and shamar, are priestly terms. They tell us that before man was ever a husband, he was a cultivator and a caretaker, called by God to reflect the image of a God who builds, tends, and protects. Paul echoes this in 1 Corinthians 11:3: "The head of every man is Christ." A man's primary relationship was never meant to be with his wife. It was always meant to be with his King.Drop a comment below and let us know where you're at in your own journey.
