Covenant Life Church on Marriage

The Glory of Christ in Marriage
Brian Chesemore
Roles of Men and Women
Grant Layman helps us see how God's design for our roles in marriage is not only right, it is good, and how we are to function in our distinct roles as men and women primarily in the marriage relationship.
Conflict Resolution
Betsy Ricucci; Gary Ricucci - Conflict in marriage is common, and left unresolved proves destructive. But the cross brings hope and
harmony to life's deepest conflicts.
Effective Communication and Fellowship
Betsy Ricucci; Gary Ricucci - Good communication and fellowship are the fruit of a godly marriage. But too often they are seen as an end rather than a means. Communication and fellowship are gifts from God to be enjoyed for God's glory and our good.
Embracing God’s Design
Brian Chesemore - Men and women are both created in God's image but are responsible for joyfully fulfilling unique roles within marriage.
For This Reason
Don DeVries - The Bible lays a foundation for marriage and helps answer important questions including "What is marriage?", "What is the purpose of marriage?" and "Why marry?".
God’s Mercy & My Marriage
Dave Harvey looks at the mercy with which God related to us in our sin - to those who deserved wrath he gave kindness and patience. God's mercy should transform our lives as we follow his call to respond to sin in the same way. As we live out this transformation, there will be drastic implications for our marriages.
Husband and Wife
Joshua Harris borrows from our ongoing study of Paul's first letter to the Corinthians for our mini-series on sexual purity. In the opening verses of I Corinthians 7, we learn about the part marriage plays in protecting men and women from immorality. We also gain a proper view of a husband and wife's obligation to each other in marital intimacy.
Priorities
Grant Layman warns us to guard against having our goals for the family influenced by the culture as opposed to the Word of God, and having good intentions which are never realized. He helps us see how good planning can lead to strong families.
