Hello again!

We have a sneaking suspicion that not many people read editorials, so this will be very short.  This entire issue of MarriageWorks is devoted to encouraging a deeper understanding of what a Christian marriage is all about – in preparation, in commitment, and what it actually looks like in the marriage and in the resulting family.

We hope you are challenged and encouraged.  If it is true, as we believe it is, that the intimacy of a Christian marriage is to be an earthly reflection of the intimate, and personally transparent relationship God wants to have with each of us, then we have a tremendous privilege and responsibility to live that out here on earth, in our lifetime.

The writers in this quarter’s MarriageWorks Magazine have provided us with top quality material; clear biblical and practical marriage teaching.  If you think so too, pass on this website to your friends and encourage others to subscribe. You may not know that the MarriageWorks Video Series is still available for couples and small groups. You can check it out at www.marriageworks.com.au, Contact us directly via email javine@optusnet.com.au

Let’s make 2009 a great year for strengthening marriages and bringing glory to God by the way we live. That is a powerful witness to the grace of God in our lives.

Be encouraged!

Happy reading,

Jim and Grace Vine
