Attention disciples of Christ!

Okay, I know that I said the next post would be a follow up to "What does it mean to have a Christ centered marriage?" but this post has been weighing on my heart. So the next one will be about marriage roles! So here it goes... As Christians in today's world it is very important that we are being BOLD and speaking the TRUTH into the hearts of believers and non believers alike.  You can still be intentional while being gentle to those who need to hear the gospel.  Those who claim to know the gospel but aren't fully understanding it or they're twisting it, we are called by God to correct them.  As a Christian, you are a disciple of Christ! If you recall, ALL of His disciples in the Bible were persecuted for following Him.  It isn't rude or wrong of you to correct the discrepancies that you find in the teachings or beliefs of those who claim to be Christ followers, it's the RIGHT thing to do. It's what Jesus would do! You just a

What does it mean to have a Christ centered marriage?

Let's face it. Marriage is hard; but it can still be fun and it can still be worthwhile. The "perfect" marriage = 2 imperfect people vowing to never give up on each other.

So, you're offended?

It seems that it is easier and easier to offend people these days. Well when it comes to Jesus, I say, get ready to be offended!! 😉 The last thing that I ever plan to do is sugar coat or water down the TRUTH. Jesus saves people; and I want to share that news with everyone that I can! I have found something that completely changed my life, for the better and it's an amazing feeling! It would be selfish of me to keep it all to myself! Sharing something that you come to find is true can be really hard. Especially when people are so closed off because they can't stand the thought of surrendering their life to anyone or anything. I know, especially in the day we are in now, people just don't want to believe in something that they can't understand. I know that struggle too! But you just have to realize that we aren't always going to have all the answers and there are things that we don't need to know. All of the things that we do need to know, are in the
