I am consistently asked about the circumstances surrounding weddings. What makes it permissible or not to conduct a wedding in ”this or that” situation? I am very aware that there are strong opinions and lively disagreements about whether an evangelical pastor should marry Christians, non-Christians, and everything in between. Certainly with recent decisions, the debate does not end there. Then you have to determine if it is wise to marry two Christians in “this particular circumstance” as opposed to “that particular circumstance.”

In light of the tendency to oversimplify, or bog down your young engaged couple with too much to do in pre-marital counseling, here , Brian Croft writes of are 3 areas he finds helpful and thorough, whether you have a few weeks or as “many weeks as needed” before the big day.
