Why Marriage? Is It Required? What if I Don't Want to Marry? (Ep. 1)

from The Ask in Faith Podcast · host Justin Bates

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I often get asked questions about the importance of marriage between a man and a woman and why I feel so strongly about it. I can only speak for myself, not as an official Church representative, but here are my answers to some of those commonly asked questions about marriage. This short video certainly doesn't answer every question, so I'd encourage you to continue seeking truth on this subject, while also remembering that the Lord often asks us to obediently trust Him while we wait for further light and knowledge. Hope it helps! COMMENT BELOW: How has marriage and family been a blessing in your life?
