Fireproof

We took the chance at the SBC to view a screening for the new movie, "Fireproof," coming to theaters in September. All I can say is this - if your marriage is struggling but you want to make it work, you need to see this movie.

I won't give away the plot, but if you'd like to see a trailer and get more info you can go to http://www.fireproofthemovie.com and check it out.

If your marriage is strong and you want to keep it that way, you'll want to see this show. If you're thinking about getting married or want to someday, you should go see this movie.

God has ordained marriage (think one man, one woman) as a covenant for a lifetime. He has given men the incredible task of loving their wives as Christ loves the church. He commands women to submit to their husbands as the church submits to Christ. It's a beautiful picture of Christ and the church. It's a profound mystery, Paul says in Ephesians 5:32. How can two become one flesh? I can't explain it but God makes it happen.

I'm so thankful for a faithful, loving, God-fearing wife. God has blessed me far beyond what I deserve. I truly feel like I married "above me." We're not without our disagreements and different perspectives, but we complement each other and work toward building each other up. Amy is a treasure - a true gift from the Lord.

"He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord." (Proverbs 18:22).

Is your marriage "fireproof"?
