The Root of Conflict

Our Ministry -

Let The Healing Begin
Firmly Grounded
Selfishness (specifically sin) is inevitably at the root of every conflict. For marriages to begin the restoration process, couples must address and resolve three critical areas:
  • Nothing But The Truth
  • Confession Of  Sin
  • Forgiveness For All

Equally important, is to know that the measure in which expectations are placed on your spouse can at times be unrealistic, unattainable and sadly, misappropriated. Developing a healthy expectation in marriage will minimize disappointments, leaving room for your spouse to grow. 

Even so, within the heart of every man and woman, resides an inner struggle to not only be understood, but to also be in charge.  Left to ourselves, we can easily become critical of others, angry for almost any reason and self-destructive as a result.
When God created marriage, He knew that we would need relational security, unwavering commitment and steadfast love.  He has given us the Gospel as the antidote for these needs clearly illustrating the greater relationship found only in Christ.

From the bible, we discover truth, instruction and hope.  It's God's blueprint for life.  The bible provides precepts, principles and promises to experience and sustain a healthy marriage for every husband and wife willing to follow its teaching.

Genesis 2:24 tells us that, "When a man LEAVES his mother and father and CLEAVES to his wife, they will become ONE flesh."

In every marriage, the degree of cleaving is always in direct proportion to the degree of leaving.  Living fully by God's design in marriage will produce a oneness that is pure, unparalleled and unbroken for life.
