Modern culture has pulled us away from God's purpose and plan for marriage. In fact, Christian wedding vows are now considered old fashioned, or even oppressive. In this episode of Family Vision, Dr. Rob & Amy Rienow continue their conversation about pursuing unity in marriage. Genesis 2:26, “For this reason a man will leave father and mother, cleave to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” They discuss how spiritual warfare plays a role in causing conflict in marriage relationships and how couples can find unity in Christ. It is easy to see the faults and issues in your husband or wife. It is more difficult to see how your attitudes and behaviors may be contributing to conflicts in the marriage.

This is a true sign that the relationship is not real and that the hidden things we keep inside are doing more harm to us than others.

Since its founding in 1999, CFUF has remained at the front-line of addressing some of our city’s most pressing issues, including poverty, unemployment, father-absence and family disintegration. CFUF maintains an unwavering focus on addressing the key challenges of Baltimore’s urban families by working to connect fathers to their children, creating opportunities for economic and financial security through work, and providing access to other key interventions and supportive services. Formally established in 2011, the Practitioners Leadership Institute (PLI) is a nationally focused initiative designed to provide Responsible Fatherhood, Workforce Development and Family Strengthening practitioners with experiences, skills and information that will strengthen their ability to improve outcomes for low-income fathers and families, impacting boys and men of color. The PLI fulfills this mission through:          Creating opportunities for peer-to-peer exchange, and education and skill building;         Opening channels of access to information, resources and best practices; and         Providing support for hands-on coaching and partnership development. The PLI Academy, one program of PLI, is an eight-month (March-October), cohort-modeled fellowship program designed to assist nationally diverse field leaders in growing their network, leadership, expertise, and capacity in one or more of the following focus fields: Responsible Fatherhood, Family Strengthening, Workforce Development, and/or Boys and Men of Color. CFUF is currently seeking applicants for the third Cohort of the Academy, which will kick-off in March of 2015.
