The Changing Face of Marriage


My experience of the ‘domestic church’ is the dynamic structure of marriage.  Today, many couples do not have their marriage ceremonies at church but rather at vacation spots.  In addition, the media plays an important role in one’s perception of the changing structure and composition of marriage and family.  One show, in particular, Modern Family, features various types of 21st century families.  On the other hand, Mad Men, features one type of 20th century family. 

Despite, the changing composition of marriage and family, I think it is important to hold traditional beliefs as well as modernized ones.  However, I do believe modernization tends to make people more accepting of others with different beliefs, etc.  One day, I would want to establish the church in my home with my husband.  I would want a husband who has similar beliefs regarding the Church as me.
