YOUTH LESSON ACTIVITY. TEMPLE MARRIAGE & CIVIL MARRIAGE Quiz puzzle. A temple marriage seals a couple for eternity, a civil marriage does not. As youth put puzzles together they can learn the reasons why couples marry this way. For example, in a temple marriage: “Each partner can know the other partner values the gospel.” In a civil marriage: “Some aren’t sure enough of their love that they want to be married for eternity.”
