Changing Face of Marriage

This description of the "Domestic Church" is very similar to what my parents preach at home, with some exceptions. There is an overall feeling of love and forgiveness; however, we are not always perfect. My parents make mistakes as do my siblings and myself. Changing the structure and function of a family can have both positive and negative side effects. On the positive side, it can bring a family closer to its faith and learn to merge what is preached to the actions they perform. However, this could also have negative consequences. Changing the structure of a family could also change a husband or wife's perspective, and thus possibly lead to conflict or in extreme circumstances, divorce. The fact that those people with a college degree are less likely to experience divorce or multiple marriages is not very surprising to me. If one takes the time to develop one's mind intellectually, one can further come to know one's true desires and can translate that into choosing a life partner. I hope to incorporate my own take on the "domestic church" in my own home and make it a place of love, forgiveness, and trust.
