Jesus' teaching on marriage leaves the disciples reeling—wondering if it's even worth getting married at all. Dr. John Neufeld explores Matthew 19:9-15, where Jesus addresses lifestyle choices, affirming both lifelong marriage and singleness for the kingdom. When parents bring their children for blessing, Jesus rebukes the disciples and welcomes them, reminding us that God calls us to lives of commitment, not independence and self-fulfillment.

The Ministry of Our Lord: Join Dr. John Neufeld for a journey through Matthew 19-20, where Jesus makes His final trip to Jerusalem. The crowds are growing, expecting triumph and glory. But what Jesus teaches is startling: humility over greatness, sacrifice over power. This Messiah will not rule from a throne—He will reign from a cross.

When people treat us unfairly, we want to get back at them in some way. But when we take the high road and don’t give in to our desire for revenge, the blessings are immeasurable.

More than forty years ago, Tim and Kathy Bush married but quickly discovered loving each other wasn’t enough. Each brought childhood traumas, abuse and addiction into the relationship, and their marriage was marred by lies, infidelity and secrets. Kathy’s breaking point was when Tim caught her entering into yet another affair at the 25-year mark in their marriage. Tim’s breaking point was the result of a perfect storm: his failing business, the terminal diagnosis of his brother and severe health issues due to anxiety. As a result, Tim and Kathy finally confessed everything to each other and began the process of learning to surrender everything to the Lord. Tim and Kathy offer practical advice about how couples can begin to heal and rebuild their marriages. They stress the importance of fixing yourself first before trying to fix your spouse. And they offer 8 intentional ways couples can help their marriages flourish.
