Church Attendance Beneficial to Marriage
Married couples who attend church together tend to be happier than couples who rarely or never attend services, according to sociologist W. Bradford Wilcox of the University of Virginia ... Wilcox found that married church-going Americans across denominational and racial classifications were more likely to describe themselves as "very happy" than their non-religious counterparts. Couples who attended church regularly were also less likely to divorce than couples who seldom attended church services, Wilcox found.
