Something of a sermon outline here that I’d like to share.

“Saved by Grace Through Faith” (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Formula for healing and salvation, if so inclined, as God is inclined, toward those who are in opposition to Him

What if this principle were applied to MARRIAGE, FAMILY, CHURCH, and SELF

Saved—made whole; preserved from destruction

Grace—favor on behalf of the other with no thought of self

Faith—living presently in the reality of the future best

Reconciling to our SPOUSE

are we interested in securing the BEST in our MARRIAGE

Reconciling to members of our FAMILY

are we interested in securing the BEST in our FAMILY

Reconciling to the KINGDOM OF GOD on earth

are we interested in securing the BEST in God’s church

Reconciling to YOURSELF

are we interested in securing the BEST in YOURSELF
