I am a Missionary

If the word “missionary” is somewhat foreign to you, don’t let fear be bigger than your faith. Missionaries are not individuals to put on a pedestal as someone you can’t relate to. Learn more from our guest post this month from Brittany Bruns, who is a missionary.

Dealing with Conflict in Marriage Unity

All newlyweds face initial adjustments or difficulties in the early stages of their marriage, but the key is how we respond and learn from those difficulties for the next round of trials and adjustments life will bring.

The Trials Will Come

Just as conflict is inevitable between two married sinners, external trials and hardships are also to be expected. It’s not a question of “if”, but “when”. So how do we respond to external trials that impact our marriages? How do we shift expectations and position ourselves to grow closer together through the trials rather than drift apart?

Expectations: Defined and Undefined

As most couples approach marriage, each partner holds unrealistic expectations and unknown expectations. Our unrealistic expectations stem from a lack of true understanding of what marriage really is, but our unknown expectations can be even trickier, leaving us frustrated and confused but not entirely sure why.

Attacking the Issue, Not Each Other

Conflict is a common occurrence in marriage. Two sinful people bound together, living together, making decisions or not making decisions together, there will always be conflict. But a healthy marriage isn’t defined by the absence of conflict, it’s defined by the way a couple communicates through and resolves their conflict. In this podcast, Michael and Cindy discuss how to approach conflict in a nonthreatening way.

The Biblical Lens of Marriage

Hebrews 4:12 tells us that the word of God is living and active, and that it is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. If this is true, how important might the study of God’s Word truly be in relation to the health and strength of our marriages? What if the more we delve into God’s Word, the more happy, healthy, and holy our marriages become?

The Bible and Marriage

The Bible opens with a marriage and closes with a marriage, and there are stories permeating the entire text about good and bad examples of marriage. Certainly God cares about your marriage and has plans to use your marriage for His eternal purpose and plan. But God’s Word doesn’t speak on it’s own, you have to open it, read it, study it, and apply it. But how do we do it? Join Michael and Cindy as they discuss just that.
