In week 2 we ask the question of "How do you stay in love with the person you married when they become someone else?" The answer is simple and is found in honoring marriage and staying faithful to one another. This means working at it and being committed in the same way you promised to be in your wedding vows.
Also today Pastor Aaron and his wife Shanda took the stage to share their marriage struggles and how they have had to work through them together. Then we fielded questions about marriage from the audience LIVE for them to answer.

This is the final week of the series ALL IN. Today's message follows the longest act of obedience recorded in the Bible. Noah obeyed God's word for 120 years in order to build an ark, but we have trouble obeying God for two weeks. If we will choose to obey though, we discover the blessing and favor of God follows it.

Week 2 of the series ALL IN brings us to a topic that is foreign to most of our culture. Denying ourselves is not common practice. We live in indulgence. But when Jesus calls us to go ALL IN, he demands that we deny ourselves and take up our crosses to follow him.
