Pastors ought to make this report a subject of a sermon. And if they know couples in their congregations are living together, they ought to encourage them to either marry—or separate.
Lisa~ That's exactly what the pastor at my church did last year. In fact there was this one couple who had been coming to church for a long time and had a child together, pastor advised them to get married and live right or else he didn't want them coming to that church anymore.
They followed pastors advise, Got married and said it was the best decision they ever made.
Personally I agreed with pastor.
I'm not saying I'm a saint b/c I have made my mistakes in life , but if I had to do over again, I would have done it "right".
Thanks for sharing that with us.
