I know its not absolute, but it seems that the only time I hear about a covenant marriage is when someone is getting divorced.
Don't get a covenant marriage and always have some sort of pre-nuptial agreement.

Kristen spratt or something like that. She is a lawyer and according to Carroll she came up with it in a dream. I don't know why anyone would want to be in a covenant marriage.

LSU law professor Katherine Spaht was a major supporter. the goal is to force people to stay together by making it difficult to divorce. the statute also suggests counseling to start when you experience difficulties and continue until the divorce is granted. one lawyer in baton rouge says that any person with a covenant marriage is too stupid to be her client.

I have a covenant marriage and there weren't any hoops to jump through other than pre-marriage counseling, which most churches will require anyway.
The other thing that was different was that you had to demonstrate that you at least tried to save the marriage before a divorce would be granted.

Not sure if serious. Surely you're aware this is religious?

I don't know if it is written on it but I had one and all I did was go to couples therapy once and be away from the ex for a year, freedom

We were made to meet with some weird priest, take personality tests, go through counseling, did some stupid retreat a couple of times...then damn near repeated all of it with the priest down here before the ceremony. I've never heard of covenant marriage.
You probably thought everyone went to driver's ed too. Until you got hit by a chick in her PJs in the middle of the day wearing curlers in her hair....

The divorce rate among people that get them is tiny. Why would you hear about them outside of divorce in any event?

WTF is a covenant marriage?
ETA: just googled it. I don't guess any of my marriages were covenant.

I'm sure Tony Perkins was involved in some capacity. Just another episode of the State persecuting those poor Christians

probably because the percentage of people who get them is even more tiny, and of those people who do, they are likely to be very religious (to the extent that divorce isn't feasible, even in cases of infidelity).
