How do we handle trials in marriage according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible instructs believers to approach marital trials with prayer, mutual support, and a focus on God's glory.

Marriage will inevitably face trials because both partners are sinners. The Apostle Paul highlights these challenges in 1 Corinthians 7, advising couples to be mindful of the cost of marriage. Christians should not shy away from such difficulties but rather employ prayer, scripture, and their faith in Christ to navigate them. Couples are to build each other up, bearing one another's burdens and encouraging growth in grace. The struggles in marriage can teach believers to rely on God more deeply, ultimately drawing them closer to Him and reflecting Christ's love through their covenant commitment.
