Zac Poonen teaches that peacemaking in marriage is a sign of spiritual maturity and following Christ's example. He explains that the more spiritual spouse should take the first step toward reconciliation, drawing parallels to how God initiated restoration with humanity, and that peace comes when one person is willing to die to their own pride and ego rather than demanding their partner make the first move.
