The Changing Face of Marriage


My experience with the domestic church has been that my parents are both Catholic and I have been raised to believe in the Catholic traditions and taught to try to live with the qualities of honesty, kindness, and many other things that the church teaches. I have also gone to Catholic school for my entire life, I have learned more about the church because I have been able to practice and learn its teachings throughout my entire life These Christian principles are important to help me live my life and are a good basis when making decisions. To me, domestic church can help give a child the means to understood spirituality and give them the tools to help choose right and wrong and help you build a relationship that they can choose to begin to develop themselves. I think the pros of the changing structure of marriage would be that people can feel freedom to be with the person they love, without feeling the pressure to marry someone just because they are getting older, or feeling pressured to stay in a relationship that is unhealthy. However, the cons of not defining a relationship can make this commitment less formal, which causes people perhaps not seriously look at their relationship and the future they have with this person. I think there can be many statistics about marriage and divorce, but I do not think that these should change someone’s view or belief on marriage because each relationship is different. I do not think that I feel compelled to create a domestic church of my own, but I think that I will be able to choose that when the opportunity arises. However, thinking about it right now, I think that I would want to create this domestic church in my home because I enjoyed and appreciated having these Christian values to help lead my life and help me make decisions.
