Becoming more like Jesus. Together.

Marriage is increasingly seen as harmful, optional and irrelevant in an increasingly confused world. Surprisingly, most people, even Christians don’t understand the genius of marriage, the real cost, the amazing benefits and the ultimate purpose of marriage which the Apostle Paul calls a “mega-mytery.” In this talk we will try to answer the question, “why marriage matters."

There are a number of reasons why marriage can be hard, but one of the common themes that often goes unnoticed is simply a failure to serve. When we put ourselves first, our relationships will suffer. Let’s learn about the power of serving and the impact it can have on our relationships.

Most of us have a view of sex that we’ve heard from the influences around us - our family of origin, our culture, our friends. But, so few of us have a Biblical view of sex that we’ve read from the Scriptures. Let’s discover what The Word has to say about sex so we can cultivate healthy sex lives both inside and outside of marriage.

Understanding how submission to God and preferring on another leads to forgiveness, healing and a transformed marriage that will be a witness to the world how love for God and each other is the way forward!

While “opposites attract,” the personality differences God weaves into each spouse can create tension if not understood through the lens of grace. Instead of allowing these differences to divide, couples are encouraged to see them as gifts that strengthen the marriage when surrendered to Christ. By choosing patience, empathy, and mutual submission, couples can reflect God’s love more fully in their home.
