I Found A Good Thing 17 Years Ago!

"He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord." (Proverbs 18:22). Seventeen years ago today Autumn and I exchanged sacred marriage vows before God. I intend to spend the rest of my life keeping those vows and "rejoicing in the wife of my youth" (Proverbs 5:18). Not going to be a problem... I'm crazy about her! And it only gets better as the years go by.

Get Ready For Some Valentine's Day Snuggling!

It isn't often that pastors mention "Bible reading" and "snuggling" in the same sentence... but here is some great Valentine's Day advice from Pastor Kevin Deyoung:

"Sunday is Valentine’s Day: a holiday for Hallmark and flower shops to make money, an occasion for single people to feel miserable, a snare for the negligent husband, a celebration of rampant sensuality, and a common grace reminder for husbands and wives to delight in each other. It’s all in what you make of it. If you are married, I suggest snuggling up with your spouse and reading Song of Solomon’s eight chapters, the romantic jumper cables of the Bible."

Biblical Marriage On Display

I'm convinced that our culture doesn't have a clue when it comes to marriage. So many people today view it as a temporary arrangement, easily broken when it is no longer convenient. Additionally, people clearly do not understand the divine purpose of marriage, or the roles of husbands and wives in marriage. And yet, the Bible is pretty clear about this. It really is not as complicated as some would try to make it.

We will explore a variety of issues this Sunday - including hairstyles, clothes, attitudes of wives, priorities of husbands, and prayer - but with one goal in mind: At Servant's Heart Fellowship we want passionate and biblical marriages that glorify God! Join us in this pursuit as we examine 1 Peter 3:1-7.
