Living Room Encounter

This weekend Melody and I are facilitating another Living Room Marriage Encounter with 2 couples. This intimate gathering will take place in a home where couples will be encouraged to share, pray, and do battle for their relationships. Going into this weekend, I am so open to whatever God wants to say and do. It is a relief that these Encounters don't involved a formula or program. It is not a "show up and let us give you 5 steps to a better marriage". Been down that road before...not much transformation. These Encounters are much more about entering more deeply into your own story and the story of your marriage. It is inviting God to move and speak a fresh message. Each Encounter is unique. This weekend, we are working with 2 couples who are farther down the marriage road. So, it will be interesting to see what God wants to say.

Melody's parents are coming in on friday to help with our children. So, that is a huge blessing to know that they are cared for while we minister and guide. If you are reading this, offer up some prayer for us and the couples we are meeting with. Pray that we truly encounter the living God who desires for marriages to reflect His mercy and love.
