In this episode of More Than Roommates, Gabrielle, Derek, and Scott discuss non-negotiables, preferences, wise process, and why commitment to a local body is essential for your spiritual growth and your marriage. They discuss what to do when you and your spouse don’t see eye-to-eye.

Scriptures:

Hebrews 10:23-25

Acts 2:42-47

1 Corinthians 12

Romans 12

PS 19:14

Questions to Discuss:

1. What are our top five non-negotiables for a church? Where are we currently aligned—and where are we not?

2. How are we currently using our gifts to build up the body (1 Cor 12; Rom 12)? What’s one next step we can take to use our gifts?

3. If we’re considering a change, have we fasted, prayed, and invited community/leadership into the decision?

4. What past church experiences (good or painful) might be shaping our expectations today?
