“Our mission is preparing couples for a “one flesh” marriage of mutual respect, taking the love that God has given us and giving that love to others, who will give it to others, who will give it to others.” Bob & LaRue McDaniel
Our Basic Premise
The only thing wrong with any relationship is that we make decisions that are contrary to what God says in one of these three areas in our lives:
1. What God says about Himself:
Truth: God says that He is a Loving Father. (John 3:16)
Decision: Failure to understand who God is results in fear of Him, because relating to someone that powerful is frightening unless we know He is on our side.
Result: If we are afraid of God, we lose our greatest asset in this world, and our only resource for growth.
2. What God says about others:
Truth: God made everyone special!
Decision: When we fail to recognize this fact, we won’t have the proper respect for other people.
Result: When others fail, we are unable to separate the person from their performance.
3. What God says about me:
Truth: God has made me special!
Decision: Failure to recognize this truth causes our self-worth to always be in question.
Result: We spend our time trying to measure up or defending ourselves.
Who Should Attend?
People with:
- Good marriages that want them to be great!
- Hurting marriages that want to be healed.
- Committed relationships that are considering marriage.
Someone taught you how to speak English, but… who taught you how to be married? Your primary care givers taught you to speak English. Perhaps they never sat you down and said, “child, this is a verb, this is an adverb, ….”, but, even if they did, that is not the way they taught you to speak the English language. They taught you to speak English by the most effective method of teaching known to mankind: by modelling. They taught you so well that, even if you learn a second language, you will normally always think in your native tongue and then figure out how to say it in the secondary language. This is also the way you learned how to be married. Your parents taught you how to speak, how to walk, and how to be married, and they taught you to the best of their ability. However, God left us a better model. All of the principles that are needed to be married according to God’s abundant life are in the Bible.
This workshop is designed to teach you about marriage the same way you learned to speak English: by allowing the Word of God to model it, and then practice walking in the way marriage has been modelled for us. The power of the Word of God is more current than the latest headline, and more powerful than any force known to man. Try it -- you’ll like it! It will be fun and rewarding. And, just like learning to speak English, you will not forget how. You will even get to where you speak with the same dialect that the Bible speaks when you talk about marriage.
