“I think there's an expectation of like, oh gosh, our relationship with Jesus is going to be so solid and we're going to be so faithful and our sex life is going to be amazing and we're going to be so connected and it's going to heal this part of me. So then when you get into marriage and it doesn't do any of that, that is why the divorce rate I believe is so high because we are very, very naive to what it actually takes to build a life with somebody.”
