Great quotes! However, the source of your first quote is Bonhoeffer (Letters and Papers from Prison), not Piper. Although Piper did cite this quote by Bonhoeffer in his book This Momentary Marriage. FYI.
Thanks for catching that, Ryan. I’ll take that one out :)

Married 59 years, 3 months: amazing a marriage for “3” speaks to the world without word being spoken what Jesus can do…a marriage for 3 will not fail! Not about us, about Jesus! to Go be the Glory, every breath & heartbeat together this side of heaven speaks about what Jesus can do…if allowed to do so…not about us but about Him!
My question is aboutJohn Piper’s views on common law marriage. there is a couple I know who will not marry in church or by a justice of the peace bacause they say they made a marriage covenant to each other before God (before they were Christians) Now they use John Piper quotes to justify their refusal to marry before witnesses.
How is it that lists like this never seem to have the most perfect pop culture wedding quote of all time: I love you and I like you.
Thanks for the great sharing. Very touching and inspiring.I loved your post!💕💕
