Moving your Marriage from Performance to Faith
God is the creator of marriage and He wants to be involved in building every marriage. He has given us His blueprint for marriage in the Bible. A firm foundation is the most important part of any building and this is especially true for building our marriages. Jesus talked about this when he tells the story of the man who built his house on the sand and the one who built his house on the rock. Jesus says:
“Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.” Matthew 7:24-25
Our foundation in marriage MUST be built on God’s biblical teachings on marriage principles and then our obedience to following those principles. When we do this then our marriages will be able to stand the storms that come against it. And storms will come!
So, whether your marriage is in calm waters right now, or storms are battering your marriage, or perhaps you are planning a wedding and want to be prepared for marriage, then Christan Family Life Ministry Africa (CFLMAfrica) is here to help.
“Becoming One” Marriage Enrichment Bible Study
Becoming One is a biblically-based marriage enrichment Bible study that takes us to the Bible to answer questions such as: “What is the purpose of marriage?”, “Did God really bring my spouse to me, or did I marry the wrong person?”, “How can my spouse and I grow in oneness when we are so different?”, and finally “Am I prepared for marriage?”
Over a 12-week in-depth bible study couples will get answers to these questions and much more.
Since 1995 Becoming One has been strengthening marriages of couples of all ages from throughout Africa (Lesotho, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Tanzania, and Nigeria).
Pre-Marital Counseling
Becoming One is also an excellent pre-marital counselling tool. In the last 10 years numerous young African couples have prepared themselves for their marriages through the Becoming One study. Read their stories here
