Happy Sunday!
I hope you have enjoyed the rainy weather by which we have been blessed. Spring is a time of new beginnings and fresh starts. Rain is a reminder of those times where God brings blessings into our lives. The rain helps give birth to new vegetation that blooms for the world to see its beauty. What new thing is God doing in your life today?
We are continuing our journey through the book of 1 Corinthians as we look at relationships. Today we'll dive into the importance and benefits of marital relationships. The city of Corinth was riddled with all sorts of sexual sin. Because of this, there was much confusion in the church as to what was appropriate and inappropriate both in marriage and singleness. For much of chapter 7, Paul gives teaching on marriage, singleness, and divorce. Today we'll specifically see what God's Word says about marital intimacy.
I'm so glad you have chosen to worship the Lord Jesus with us today.
In Christ,
