Extraordinary
To All The Nations
April 20, 2023
As a follower of Christ we have all been given a mission - to preach baptize and make disciples. And this mission continues and is strengthened as we enter into marriage. As a husband and wife we have a special way to share the love that Jesus offers the world and if we do it well, it can be a powerful testimony. Join us as we conclude the extraordinary series and look at how our marriages can share the Love of Christ with the world.

Let The Children Come to Me
March 23, 2023
Children are a gift from God and, in many marriages, a primary responsibility of the relationship. When children enter the picture of marriage and we become parents, where do we go for guidance? How should we navigate blended families as a Christian and where do kids fall in the list of priorities? Join us this week as we look To God's Word for guidance on parenting.

And The Two Became One
March 9, 2023 • Todd Deering
The covenant of marriage is a physical one and the only place intimacy is permitted in God's design. As we walk through life in marriage together physical intimacy plays a huge part in the closeness we experience. Join us as we look to the Word to seek truth about the physical intimacy given to marriage by God.
Surrounded
March 2, 2023 • Nick Latta
God wants us to be surrounded by brothers and sisters in Christ as we do life together as husband and wife. The Body of Christ offers opportunities to serve, grow, and be accountable to others. Join us this week as we discuss marriage and community. Verses Exodus 18:17-18 Numbers 11:14-17 Galatians 2:11-14 James 4:4 1st Corinthians 5:9-10 Luke 5:17-20 Matthew 19:26 Romans 12:10-11 1. Which of the 3 categories that were discussed tonight do you find yourself or your marriage in? If one of the first 2, what's keeping you from the 3rd category? 2. Read Revelation 3:15-16. How do these verses relate to the compromisers? Should this be a warning to any of us not surrounding ourselves with those who lift us up? 3. Read 1st Corinthians 15:33. How often do we consider this before we surround ourselves with non-believers? Before we consult "the world" for advice? 4. Look at the examplesfrom Moses and Peter, it can be easy for even the faithful to get off track at times. How can who we surround ourselves with either positively or negatively impact us?
Guarding The Covenant
February 16, 2023 • Todd & Lisa Deering
We have a real enemy that would like nothing more than to bring down a marriage. As we walk through life together as husband and wife we need to be on guard against the tactics of this enemy. This means strong accountability practices and making sure we flee far away from temptation. Join us this week as we look to God's Word for biblical accountability and protecting the covenant.
Gentle Words
February 9, 2023 • Todd Deering
How we communicate with one another in marriage is one of the best ways to lift up or destroy our relationships. Unmet expectations and harsh words can cause damage and difficulty as we live life together. Join us as we search the Scriptures for Godly guidance for communication in marriage.
He First Forgave Us
February 2, 2023 • Todd Deering
Forgiveness is one of the hardest biblical concepts to truly live out in our lives. Christ sets the bar high and gives us all an example to follow in marriage. Join us this week as we look into the concept of biblical forgiveness and how to walk it out in our lives.
Who Comes First?
January 19, 2023 • Todd Deering
With the busyness of life always pushing and pulling at our time and attention it is easy to get out of order in life. Many times, we chose to put other things in the place that God should be in and when that happens our marriages suffer. So who comes first? Is it our friends, our kids, our spouse, our job? Join us this week as we dig in to God's order for marriage and life.
Extraordinary: Series Introduction Video
January 1, 2023 • Galatians 2:20, Psalm 37:4, Ephesians 5:31–32, Matthew 28:19–20
"I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me." Galatians 2:20 Our marriages are to be holy and set apart, an example to our friends and family, and the the world, of the same love that Jesus Christ has for His people. This love is sacrificial and forgiving, humble and gracious. But is this kind of marriage possible here on earth? The answer is a resounding YES! The Bible holds the answers and gives us the prescription for the best relationship with our spouses, it gives us wisdom for salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, and gives our marriages direction and an eternal purpose. We hope you and your spouse will join us for the "Extraordinary" Bible study! This foundational marriage series begins on Thursday, January 12th at 7PM in the main building auditorium. Childcare is provided.
Ordained By God

From the very beginning God had a plan and purpose for Marriage as He created the first man and woman and brought them together. He created a bond between the man and woman, a covenant, that is not meant to be broken. An Earthly promise that represents the very love that God offers His creation through His son Jesus Christ. Join us as we explore the meaning of this covenant and what it represents.
