Do you let him or her come only so close and then they hit the wall you’ve put up? Chip wants you to know there’s a way to take a brick off that wall - and then another - and another. He wants you to know Jesus offers a solution to the guilt that’s robbing you of a healthy marriage. You don’t want to miss this one.
Three major reasons we have shame:
A theological reason – we ALL have shame.
Shame from things DONE to us.
Shame of things that we DO.
Three natural responses:
To HIDE.
To NUMB the pain.
To COMPENSATE.

Jesus MEETS us where we are.
Jesus gently DEMANDS that we face the truth about ourselves.
Jesus AFFIRMS our value and our worthiness by commissioning us to service.

When love isn’t enough to hold a marriage together, what is? In this message, Chip shares what we all know about ourselves but are often unwilling to face or admit. The truth he brings has the power to shore up an unstable relationship, mend damaged souls that think there’s no hope, and bring life back to a marriage that’s been dead for years. If you think you’re too far gone, Chip’s going to tell you you’re not. There really is a way to find the joy and peace you’re longing for in your marriage.
