November 15th Meeting

What a blessing our MOPS speakers are!


This morning author and teacher Sarah Beckman spoke on Safeguarding Your Marriage. As the youngest of 14 children, Sarah was introduced to alcoholism and divorce at a young age, but grew up to know God's love and plan for her life despite brokenness. Sarah encouraged us to create and cultivate a SAFE marriage, and offered her own story as an example of God's redemption.

Sarah's acronym for a safe marriage:
  • Spend time together ALONE
  • Add accountability
  • Find out about your man
  • Engage in the intimacy of prayer

1 Corinthians 10:13 says "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it."
