Half of all marriages end in divorce, right? Well, I’ve got good news.
The actual divorce rate is not nearly fifty percent and never has been. Yes, there is a risk of divorce that is real. About one third of couples in the U.S. who at one point tied the knot are divorced today. I should add that the risk of divorce for step couples is higher.

That’s especially true for Christian couples. Yes, there is good news about marriage so be a couple who lives the good news.
