Preaching in Bakersfield, CA on With One Voice

I’d cover your prayers for my message this Sunday at Sovereign Grace Church of Bakersfield on the topic of With One Voice. It has been an unusually challenging week in some ways and I feel drained. I was pulling up some data related to attitudes toward marriage, and the last two slides of this 2008 report from the National Marriage Project stood out.
1. A majority (~56%) of high school seniors believe that having a child without being married is “experimenting with a worthwhile lifestyle or not affecting anyone else.”
2. About 60% of high school seniors “Agreed” or “Mostly Agreed” with the statement “It Is Usually a Good Idea for a Couple to Live Together Before Getting Married in Order to Find Out Whether They Really Get Along.”

    Preach it, brother! May God himself give you peace in every way at all times. May his word run and get the victory through you. May his design for marriage be strengthened in some way through your speaking. May your own marriage be enriched and graced with God’s richest blessings.
