We are starting the New Year by reintroducing the purpose of our Covenant Couples blog. Our blog aims to provide a personal perspective of couples in a relationship viewed through the eyes of Vassel and Judy Lewis, who have been married for forty-seven years.

Judy and Vassel’s relationship is built on the belief that Marriage is a covenant created by God. Therefore, it is divinely designed. Of course, we don’t expect everyone who reads our blog to agree with us; however, we hope that what we share will be of some benefit and an invitation for other couples to share some thoughts and experiences with us.

Out of curiosity, I often ask people, “How old should a person be before they get married?”The response to this question varies from person to person.

My wife and I were very young when we married, and modern viewpoints often speak against marrying young. We will address the age conversation in future blogs.

Marriage is a covenant and is a reflection of the relationship between Christ and the Church, and Marriage on earth also reflects Christ’s love for the church. Therefore, God hates divorce because our relationship should simulate Christ’s Marriage with the church, which is forever!

People have asked what’s the key to a long-lasting marriage.

So we like our reading audience to share what they think are the keys to a successful marriage relationship and how old a couple should be when married.

In conclusion, the covenant is God’s mechanism to administrate His Kingdom agenda.
