Will There Be Marriage in Heaven?

What will marriage be like in heaven?

What will marriage be like in heaven? See, that's what made me blissful.

I was thinking about my marriage and how wonderful it is.

Yeah, and heaven and how wonderful that will be.

And it's going to be great, Caitlin, to spend not only all of this life with my wife, but all of

eternity.

I hope she's listening right now.

Because there's definitely, you're not about to tell me that marriage doesn't exist in heaven, are you? Oh

my goodness.

Caitlin, you want to do that to me? I

wouldn't do that to you.

Okay, so I think the first thing we should say about what will marriage be like in heaven is, is a classic Curiously Caitlin answer, which is, I don't know.

Should have called this podcast, I Don't Know Caitlin.

I don't know.

Not Curiously Caitlin.

Part of the reason we're even answering this question is we've answered a lot of heaven questions.

So there are some things that we might say about this question that's ground we've already covered.

So a few things that I'll say quickly without explaining.

We will live an embodied relational life for all of eternity in right relationship with other people and with God.

So we will, in some sense, live a life like we live now.

And in other ways, we will live a life that is impossible for us to imagine.

So a central thing that we have said probably a thousand times at this point.

is that there will be some amount of continuity, something that is similar, something that stays the same.

And then there will be a certain amount of discontinuity.

There are things that will be very different and we don't know what all of those are.
