Biblical Relationship

God ordained marriage between a man and a woman for companionship, precreation, and so man would have a "helper suitable."

But God has a good purpose for these core emotions he created. By integrating biblical truth, evidence-based insights from psychology, and spiritual practices, we can move from being mastered by these emotions to living in emotional maturity.
