Bible Question: I am the wife of a Pastor. My question is, must I stay in a marriage when my husband has left the home for almost 3 years. Did he brake the marriage covenant when he chose to leave the home. Am, I still bound by that covenant? |
Bible Answer: Hello abundantlyloved, Yes, this is a clear break of the marriage covenant. When the covenant is broken, it's up to the offended spouse whether or not to stay bound. Without knowing the details, I would not say more. I hope this forum is not the only place from which you seek counsel. Steve |
