Key Theme:
God’s heart breaks over broken marriages, but His grace is greater still for those carrying the scars of divorce or those hopeful of a different outcome.
Key Application:
Pursue reconciliation where possible, lean into God’s grace and lament with your church if you carry the scars of divorce, seek help if you’re struggling, and commit to living out covenantal love in your relationships.
Key Verses:
Matthew 5:31-32
Key Questions:
1. Is there any hardness in my heart—toward my spouse, or God—that I need to bring to Jesus for healing and transformation?
2. Am I pursuing Christlike love in my relationships, or am I waiting for others to change first?
3. Who can I invite into my journey—whether for support, accountability, or healing—so that I don’t walk through this alone?
Sermon Scripture for next week: Read Matthew 5:33-37

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
