SECOND WEEK OF OUR NEW BREAKOUT SESSION – THE REALITY OF MARRIAGE
The reality of marriage: it is wonderful and difficult at the same time. Wonderful, because God designed it to be fulfilling and to draw us to Him. Difficult, because we’re human; we make mistakes; we come into a marriage with hurts and baggage. How do we navigate the tension between Wonderful and Difficult? Join us as we explore God’s plan, path, and purpose for Marriage the way He intended it. Discussion will be based on the book and video series, Sacred Marriage by Gary Thomas.
Join this six-week Breakout Session series as we discuss this topic. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend (rated PG-13).
The six sessions are as follows:
1. God’s Purpose for Marriage: More Than We Imagine (January 9)
2. The Refining Power of Marriage
3. The God-Centered Spouse
4. Sacred History
5. Sexual Saints
6. Marriage: The Love Laboratory

Come all you weary
Come all you thirsty

Drink of the water
Come and thirst no more

Come all you sinners
Come find His mercy

For God so loved the world that He gave us
His one and only Son to save us
Whoever believes in Him will live forever

Bring all your failures
Bring your addictions
Come lay them down at the foot of the cross
Jesus is waiting there
With open arms
Chorus 2
For God so loved the world that He gave us
His one and only Son to save us
Whoever believes in Him will live forever
The power of hell forever defeated

For God so loved God so loved the world
Bridge

From whom all blessings flow
Praise Him praise Him
For the wonders of His love

Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin

Do you thirst for a drink from the well
Jesus is calling

O come to the altar
The Father’s arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes
Come today there’s no reason to wait

Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy
From the ashes a new life is born
Jesus is calling

Bow down before him
For he is Lord of all
Sing alleluia Christ is risen

Because You were forsaken
I’m accepted
You were condemned
I’m alive and well
Your Spirit is within me
Because You died
And rose again

How can it be
That You my King
Would die for me

Yes I will lift You high
In the lowest valley
Yes I will bless Your name
Yes I will sing for joy
When my heart is heavy
All my days yes I will
Bridge
I choose to praise
To glorify glorify
The name of all names
That nothing can stand against
Tag
For all my days
Yes I will

FBC Richland: Who We Are (Week Three)
Pastor Tim Walker
10 As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace:
11 whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
1 Peter 4:10-11 ESV
11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers,
12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,
13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ,
14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes.
15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,
16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.
Ephesians 4:11-16 ESV
16 From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer.
17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
18 All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.
20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
2 Corinthians 5:16-21 ESV

“Rope in”– brother to brother and sister to sister – on a weekly basis so that together we can draw near to God and join him in his kingdom work.
This is an exploration – commit and prepare for a long and rewarding journey.
