The Art of Marriage^®

a six-session video event

The Art of Marriage^® is a new one-and-a-half day video event built designed to be used by churches, small groups or as a community wide event. The Art of Marriage consists of six video sessions and an accompanying manual that provides couples with projects to help apply the principles taught during each session. The Art of Marriage brings together some of the most respected and influential pastors and experts on marriage and family all in one setting. It also brings a fresh approach to a video event by weaving together some of the following elements to help couples fully experience God’s design for marriage:

engaging stories
real-life testimonies
man-on-the-street interviews
humorous vignettes

More information coming soon… Save the dates: April 13-14

Epiphany series

admin — Mon, 09 Jan 2012 23:46:53 +0000

Here is the lead off sermon for the Epiphany series. The title of the series is “Living Under the Light: How Jesus Inspired the New Testament.” Each week what we hope to do is examine a contributing author of the NT and by focusing on the prominent theme running through the work, uncover how that theme sheds light on the author’s own spiritual experience as the NT describes it. Hopefully over the course of the series, a fresh appreciation for the New Testament witness will emerge. The series moves in historical order beginning with Paul the author scholars say emerged first in the NT. This meditation is entitled, “Exceeding Great Reward.” Next week we’ll move into Mark and that meditation is entitled, “Embarking on a Journey.”
