In the scriptures God most often expresses his relationship with his people in the context of marriage. Today in a world where marriage has been reduced to a contractual agreement and vows are no longer promises Ian and Larissa give the brightest display of what covenantal love is all about. We often say to couples who we have over for counseling that a marriage centered on Christ is one of if not the clearest expressions of the Gospel in this world. Below is the story of Ian and Larissa. (*I just finished watching this during my lunch break at work and had to hold back from tearing up.)
**(Update: Read Larissa’s account in her own words on why they got married)
“Being satisfied in God (or anything) always seems easier when all is going well. But when things you love are being stripped out of your hands, then the test is real. If God remains precious in those moments, then his supreme worth shines more brightly. He is most glorified.
The most meaningful testimonies I receive are when people tell me that it was a vision of the sovereignty and goodness of God that got them through the most difficult times of their life.
Here is one of those testimonies. I tremble with the glad responsibility of introducing you to Ian & Larissa Murphy in this video. Tremble, because it is their story and so personal. So delicate. So easily abused. So unfinished. Glad, because Christ is exalted over all things.”
For those interested in John Piper’s book This Momentary Marriage you can get it online for free in pdf form here or you can order the book here. It is a book that I have benefited from greatly.
