From This Day Forward

Matt is joined by NorthWoods Elder Mike Miller to discuss suffering in marriage. Why does God choose to allow suffering in our lives? And how do we handle it in a way that glorifies Him and helps us to grow more Christ-like in the process? 

Pastor Matt is joined by Hannah Brewer of Albion Fellows Bacon Center to discuss the important topic of domestic violence. What can you do if you find yourself in a situation involving domestic or sexual violence? How can you help others who do? What should the church's response to domestic violence be? What are ways that Christians can help and what are ways that Christians sometimes fail? 

What is shame and how does it affect the life of the Christian? (Hint: it definitely does affect the life of everyone.) What can we do to give our shame to Jesus, and how can we work through it practically in a godly way? 

What does a husband's headship in marriage look like? And, just as importantly, what does it not look like? What is God's plan for a man's Christ-like leadership in the home, and how can men best fulfill it? 

On today's episode, we discuss what spiritual health looks like in a Godly marriage. We also talk about what spouses can do when their partner has bad spiritual disciples or unrepentant sin.

On today's episode, we discuss the topic of how married couples should interact with the dreaded "in-laws." We also talk about how to Biblically leave your old family and establish a healthy new family unit in marriage.

When you define idolatry as the Bible does, you begin to see how everyone worships something. That's when you can delve into the impact of idolatry on your marriage. 

Pastors Matt and Bobby discuss God's design for marriage. They also discuss what happens when you build your marriage on the wrong foundation.
