Sermon

Center Church

Summary
Using Song of Solomon 6-7, the pastor teaches five commitments for marriages that last: treating spouses as sinners needing grace, continuing to pursue one another, prioritizing marriage over other commitments, avoiding taking spouses for granted, and investing in sexual intimacy. Strong marriages reflect Christ's gospel to their communities.
Highlights
When you have an inflated sense of yourself, you'll have a deflated sense of your spouse. If you have an inflated sense of yourself, you'll have a deflated sense of your spouse.
One of the great silent killers of marriage is an unwillingness to say no to good things to say yes to your marriage.
Love is not so much like a wind. Love is much more like a fire. It can burn really hot and really bright for really long if you tend to it. And it can also burn out if you neglect it.
