He Married a Virgin Then Understood Why His Father Strayed | Dag Heward-Mills

Bishop Dag Heward-Mills confronts the romantic illusions many carry into marriage, teaching that staying with one person for life is a supernatural act no one should take lightly. He explains that when young people are in love they sing songs about forever, but after years of marriage the reality sets in and some begin to feel trapped. He references the commandment to honour thy father and thy mother that it may be well with thee, and challenges the idea that a father must earn honour by never failing. He shares the testimony of a young virgin brother who married a beautiful virgin and for a season they lived happily. When serious difficulties arose in his own marriage, the young man returned to his pastor and confessed that he finally understood why his own father had strayed. Bishop Dag warns that a woman can be a wonderful mother to her children yet a terrible wife to her husband, and charges every listener to honour their father rather than judge him, because marriage is far harder than anyone imagines from the outside.
