Filmed live at the SEEK 2026 Conference in Columbus, OH, John and Justine Donahue are joined by a group of young adults for a short Bible study.

In today’s study, they discuss the Wedding at Cana found in John 2:1-12, emphasizing practical discernment of marriage as a unique vocation and path to holiness.

You’ll discover how a rich prayer life is the backbone of vocational discernment, why marriage prep should feel like bootcamp, and the #1 thing that increases love in marriage.

Whether you are discerning marriage as your vocation in life or have been married for 20 years, this Bible study gives you rich insights for intentionally pursuing God’s will.
