ABSTRACT

This paper adopts a simple yet comprehensive approach to marriage and married life as “one individual realizing marriage as an institution established by God, recognizing the true purpose of marriage, choosing a suitable spouse upon fully understanding the nature of Christian marriage, officially establishing a marital relationship and maintaining that relationship.” While the areas of marriage counseling are categorized in different ways depending on the scholar, this paper divides it into pre-marital counseling, marriage counseling and family counseling. Accordingly, this paper defines four fundamental concepts in this field of counseling - the necessity of marriage, the objective of marriage, qualifications of the spouse and marital relations - from the perspective of evangelical theology to assist counselors.
