Yesterday, I closed out our Extreme Makeover: Love Edition series with the message, “Built to Last.” I encouraged married couples to make sure that their marriage is built to last. I was intending to gave an application on how we can invest in our marriage. By the time, I got to the end and began speaking of how marriage is a picture of Jesus’ relationship with the church, the application went out the window. The closing ended up being God making a proposal to unbelievers to be their bride. The result? Three people ended up saying, “yes” to Jesus’ proposal for salvation. Can we argue with that? I’ll give the application later. As for now, I’m getting ready to celebrate my wife’s 4.0 for her first semester in seminary. Go, Daf!
