Question / Issue
My husband and I (both Christians) got married in a chapel not in a church, we promised to God (repeting the words of the judge) to love one another,etc, Few days ago our friend (new christian) suggested us that we should've got married in a church so our marraige would be blessed by God, is this true?

Answer / Solution
I wouldn't put any weight on that idea. God is blessing your marriage because you are both Christians committed to each other and to Him. He does not bless a marriage simply because of where the ceremony was held. The idea that you have to be "married in the church" may have come from the tradition of the Catholic Church, but they used it as a way to control people.
