Ep 6: Transformational Marriage Part I

Marriage transformation begins with Romans 12:1-2, where we present ourselves as living sacrifices to God. True transformation in marriage happens when both spouses approach their relationship as worship through service to one another. This means responding with urgency to your spouse's needs, taking responsibility for reconciliation during conflict, and viewing marriage as a ministry rather than focusing on what you receive. Marriage transformation is both immediate when you say 'I do' and progressive as you grow into meeting each other's needs. Christian marriages should serve as evidence to the world of what godly relationships look like through faithfulness, love, and servant leadership.
