Intentionally Act
- Examine your heart on how you respond to these verses that deal with divorce and how you view the authority of Scripture in practice of this passage.
- How can we as a church come alongside couples with an unbelieving spouse and encourage them to be faithful to the marriage and persevere in living out the gospel?
- If you are married to an unbeliever in what ways are you demonstrating an others-centered sacrificial love that displays the gospel to your spouse? What areas do you need to improve so that you can better display this kind of love?
- Using passages like this, look for singles to shepherd looking for marriage to avoid the trials of being married to an unbeliever.
- Pray for opportunities to begin these kinds of discipleship relationships.
- Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
- Pray for those leading our corporate gathering this week and for the Holy Spirit’s work as the Word of God is further explained and applied: Dawson Bryant: music; Adam Naler: Elders' prayer & Scripture Reading; Bret Capranica: teaching.
