Am I Getting Married Too Young?

Albert Mohler has a great article in response to an op-ed piece in The Wall Street Journal by David Lapp entitled "Did I Get Married Too Young?" Both Lapp and Mohler have great arguments against the sudden shift in our culture in regards to marriage. Mohler writes towards the end of his article:

The delay of marriage is a huge problem, and Christians should be in the forefront of seeing and understanding the problem — and countering the arguments against early marriage. Churches and parents need to ask why we are not getting young adults ready for marriage. Abdication to the “hooking up” culture of young adulthood is just not an option.
I deeply encourage you to read the rest of Mohler's article, where there is also a link to Lapp's full piece in The Wall Street Journal.

About Standing Firm

Standing Firm was created to be a source of theological truth in a world that is filled with philosophies and empty deceit. God's Word is filled with charges to those that are called by His name to stand firm and to not be conformed to this world. We must heed the charge of the Apostle Paul to the church in Rome: "I appeal to you therefore brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a spiritual sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, so that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good, acceptable and perfect" (Romans 12:1-2).
