In a technologically advanced world, what we see online is increasingly impacting what society considers to be normal. For instance, pop culture seems to love promoting the “single and independent” aesthetic in its attempt to convince men and women that marriage is merely an outdated tradition that has no place in modern society. Movies, TV shows, social media influencers, and several other camps of modern culture champion this idea that to be married is slavery, and to be single is freedom.
However, not only is pop culture’s view of marriage contrary to what Scripture teaches, but even social research proves that marriage is, indeed, statistically a better way of living. University of Virginia Professor of Sociology Brad Wilcox conducted his own research specific to American society in order to make the “case for why people should work toward starting and maintaining strong marriages.” As he stated in a July webinar, the research, pulled from one of his recent books, found that “married Americans are markedly more likely to be financially secure and almost twice as likely to be very happy with their lives compared to their single peers in the U.S.”
More specifically, as summarized by The College Fix, Wilcox’s personal data discovered that “forty percent of married moms said they were ‘very happy’ compared to 22 percent of women who were single and childless,” and “13 percent of married women said they were ‘not very happy’ compared to 25 percent of single women.” Two other notable points in his findings include the fact that marriage — more than education, money, career, sex, or church attendance — proves to be “a more conclusive factor for happiness.”
Wilcox also noted that being married “gives your life a sense of meaning … direction … purpose and stability,” as well as someone who “helps you navigate both the highs and the lows” of life. Analyzing the research, one major aspect seemed to stand out, which is the fact that all of Wilcox’s research simply affirms what the Bible has declared to be true. Of course, Christians are to find their sense of meaning, direction, purpose, and stability from the Lord. But it stands to reason that marriage is a gift God offers as an immense blessing — a relationship unique from any other in this life. […]
