Description
The lesson begins by recapping on the shared values of marriage, and then begins to explore these through
the Jewish ceremony. The main teaching point of this lesson is how a wedding ceremony is a public display
of a personal decision. By sharing their intentions and beliefs with their friends and family, believers have
the support to do what they believe is right, even when things are tough.
The lesson gives people the opportunity to draw parallels with their own public lives and the values which
they demonstrate.
