Construction Zone – Families Being Built: Use the Right Glue
05/30/10
Dr. Phil Wilkes, Ephesians 5:25-31
When Paul describes the relationship between Christ and the church he intermingles it with a description of the marriage relationship. Christ Agape loved the church but his love didn’t just reveal itself in emotions. Christ lived his love with actions.
What is it that creates a strong marriage that can endure the challenges, trials and up and downs of life? Often people think if they have the “feeling” of love that makes them ready for marriage and that feeling will bond them together for life. But we all know emotions can send you on a roller coaster ride.
How do you know when love is such that it will provide the glue for a permanent relationship between a man and woman when they get married? What is it that can enable a husband and wife to continue to live out their love for each other through the hardships, challenges, disappointments, celebrations and victories that they will share?
This message examines some of the qualities that can create a healthy, vibrant marriage that lasts a lifetime. The glue that binds a couple together begins with the kind of love Christ has for us and that we then share with our spouse.
