Sacred Marriage: What If God Designed Marriage to Make Us Holy More Than to Make Us Happy? (Dvd Study)

Gary L Thomas

DVD

Description:

In this six-session small group Bible study (guide sold separately), Sacred Marriage, writer and speaker Gary Thomas invites you to see how God can use marriage as a discipline and a motivation to reflect more of the character of Jesus.

Your marriage is much more than a union between you and your spouse. It is a spiritual discipline ideally suited to help you know God more fully and intimately. Sacred Marriage shifts the focus from marital enrichment to spiritual enrichment in ways that can help you love your mate more. Whether it is delightful or difficult, your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God.

Everything about your marriage-from the history you and your spouse create, to the love you share, to the forgiveness you both offer and seek by turn-is filled with the capacity to help you grow in Christ's character.

Sessions include:

1. God's Purpose for Marriage: More Than We Imagine (24:30)
2. The Refining Power of Marriage (12:30)
3. The God-Centered Spouse (17:30)
4. Sacred History (21:00)
5. Sexual Saints (23:00)
6. Marriage: The Love Laboratory (20:30)

Designed for use with the Sacred Marriage Study Guide (sold separately).
