Home Improvement Couples Class
We are looking at God's purpose for marriage and how we are best used and fulfilled when our actions fall in line with His purposes.
Today we are going to discuss the single, greatest quality that you need to possess in order to be a great communicator with your spouse.
Has anyone ever struggling in communicating with your spouse? Yeah..me too. In this week's lesson we look at different communication styles and levels. This is very important for your marriage because most marriages that fail will first break down on communication lines. This is an integral part to tightening the marriage cord!
We continue by looking at the 5th and final reason why a marriage will fail. I’ll give you a hint...this one will hit home for almost everyone! Join us and tighten up your marriage!
In this great series we look at how to strengthen your marriage. The knot cools always be tighter so let’s look at it.
We continue our series by looking at the 5 major threats that try to pull us towards isolation in our marriage.
The love of God assures our hearts and today we learn an important lesson about the role that grace takes in this process.
This lesson is on the importance of personal revival in our own lives.
This week we look at saving grace, singing grace and a grace worth sharing.
This is the 4th lesson in a series we are teaching through called Grace for the Pace. We are learning how the gifts of God can be personalized in our lives.
We are going to take a very practical look inside the successful schedule of a family who has their priorities straight. We all can get busy and it's not a bad thing to have a full plate, in fact, it is often necessary. But it is important to be reminded in a very practical way what things we should attempt to be focusing in on for the sake of our family's spiritual health.
There is a right and a wrong way to correct problems and characteristics in the home. We, as parents, need to be prayerful, patient and persistent in our training so that we can produce Godly children who love the Lord and are a positive good on society.
Oftentimes our own insecurities will drive a wedge between relationships that we desperately want to cultivate. We need to step back and realize just how much God loves us and all that He did/does in order to have a close walk with us. Let's look at who we are in Christ and how we can draw security from that relationship that we can carry into other important relationships in our lives.
There are too many things in life for you to care about all of them. There are certain things that are too important to not care. I realized very quickly that people often know all the correct priorities, however, most people struggle in giving the correct ones precedent in their lives. We all need to guard against becoming indifferent against the things that really do matter most.
A chaotic home will little schedule and much disorder is not a place where the love and knowledge of Christ can abound. Clean up your home by getting on the same page as your spouse. You have a responsibility to present a loving and united front so your kids have a predictable standard to follow.
As we continue our look at things that will destroy a home, we come to an unforgiving spirit. Since your relationship (and mine) involves two people who are humans- then we can correctly assume that things will not always go perfectly, offenses will happen, and forgiveness will be needed. We look at the reason why we need to forgive and how it can actually heal a hurting home.
It’s time to stop and check your Priorities. So often these can get out of order just as our spine can slip out of alignment. It’s not wrong that it happens, it’s wrong if we allow it to continue in a prolonged state. Let’s get out ducks in a row.
Today we start a new series entitled “Enemies of the Home.” We will spend 8 weeks looking at as many enemies that Satan tries to use to divide and conquer your Christian home.
This week we look at reasons that we should be faithful. We also look at some great verses in I Corinthians about “stewarding” God’s resources. You will like this lesson. It is shorter than most but we cover a lot of ground though.
We are kicking off another year and we zero in on the importance of renewing your commitment to being a consistent Bible reader. We can only be strong as our walk with God deepens and strengthens.
Today we are going to look at 4 examples of faithfulness who are all centered around the birth of our Saviour.
O, Come All Ye Faithful is a series that we are doing to close out the year. We are going to look at God’s faithfulness to us over the course of history and how that should spurn in us a desire to be faithful back towards Him.
We have made it to our final lesson in this series. We are going to try and wrap this all up by reviewing the 5 main needs your spouse has as well as a few ways we can go on in exceeding those needs to our spouse. I really hope this series has been a blessing to you and that you are a better mate for it.
We are almost done with our study on exceeding your spouse’s needs. We look this week at her need for family commitment. Join us for this Bible-centered look at how a man can be more commitment to his family in this day and age.
As our series continues we want to look at your husband's need for admiration. This is a concept that is rejected often by our world, but I would challenge you to listen to this episode and see if there is not a great, Biblical case to be made in this area. Drop your preconceptions and follow us through this topical journey.
What a great lesson we had looking at her need for financial support and stability. In our class, as in most homes these days, both spouses work. But God did require that a husband be diligent in providing for his household. Join us as we explore this week in Exceed.
As we continue our study in this all important subject of exceeding the needs of our spouse, we come to lesson 7 in our series. Every Christian home should be a place of safety, love and organization. Let's see how we can grow in this area.
If you are intent on exceeding in meeting your spouse's needs, then you will definitely want to discover what their primary love language is. Listen to this helpful discussion on the 5 love languages based on the best selling book The Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman.
Guys we are learning how to fulfill our wive's need for honesty and openness in our relationship. Let's work together to build Christ-like marriages. Taught on 10.28.18
As we continue our study on exceeding our spouse's needs we flip to the guy's side and discuss how a wife can fulfill her husband's need to have a recreational companion. Ladies, come along side your spouse and take an interest in doing some type of activities that you both can enjoy and that will foster a closeness in your marriage. Here we go!
We are on a 12 week study looking at ways in which we can exceed our spouse's needs in our marriage! This week we look at her need to have intimate conversation with her man.
