Thomas closes with a forward-looking vision — grounding the hard, holy work of marriage in the eschatological hope of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, reminding us that every earthly marriage is preparation for an eternal one.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Thomas ends with the image from Revelation of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb — the ultimate wedding toward which all earthly marriages are pointing. How does that eschatological horizon change how you think about the daily work of your marriage?
2.He argues that the best reason to persevere in a difficult marriage is not that it will eventually become easy, but that God is not finished with what he is doing in it and through it. Where do you most need to hold onto that hope right now?
3.Thomas reminds us that Paul's instruction to do everything "to the glory of God" applies to marriage as much as to any other sphere. What would it look like for your marriage — in its current, real, imperfect state — to bring glory to God this week?
