God Invented Marriage

We cannot lie and say that to define marriage another way, or to disregard the importance of marriage is up for negotiation. It is for the lives and well-being of our children and for the children of our neighbors and the society at large. We don't contend for marriage because we are obsessed with other's lives. We contend for marriage because we love our neighbors as we love ourselves.

So as succinctly as I can define it, "Marriage is one man and one women in covenant for a lifetime and the only relationship designed and intended for sexual intimacy."
