Marriage is the one relationship that was never supposed to work that way — and yet it's so easy to slide into keeping score anyway. In Week 3 of Sex, Love, Work and War, we open Ephesians 5 to ask what it actually looks like to love and respect someone with no conditions attached.\nAlong the way: why couples who deeply love each other can still feel completely unloved, why every guy secretly wants to be a hero, and why the real question isn't \"would you die for your spouse?\" but \"what does love look like on an ordinary Tuesday?\"\nThis isn't a message about trying harder to have the perfect marriage. It's about a God who didn't wait for us to go first — and what changes in a marriage when that's the model.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/SmcptMfUFUmVjlIkwETl_QbE0AQZxjIqZhbOZpkgiGc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hODE2/Zjg0OTNkMGE3YmY5/MGM3ZDQxMzQxOWQ2/YzNkYS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
