Week 2: Pulling Weeds & Planting Seeds

Commitment: We will make growth and change our daily agenda. 

Marriage is not static—it’s either moving toward growth or drifting toward distance. God’s Spirit calls us to embrace change, not resist it. 

Marriage is one of life’s greatest gifts—and greatest challenges. Every couple knows what it’s like to face unmet expectations, conflict, or just the slow drift of growing apart. But what if your marriage could be more than surviving the day-to-day? What if it could become a place of healing, growth, and lasting joy? In Marriage Matters, let’s discover, or rediscover, God’s vision for marriage that can bring new life, fresh hope, and deeper connection. Whether your marriage feels strong, stuck, or somewhere in between, be encouraged, help is here. And, if you’re not married, the principles we’ll explore are valuable for every relationship.  

Each week’s message will be inspired and built from the book Marriage: 6 Gospel Commitments Every Couple Needs to Make. Copies of the book will be available for purchase at Lakeway Church at the beginning of the series and will be available until copies sell out.  

 Week 1: Coming Clean (confession) & Canceling Debts 

Commitment: We will give ourselves to a regular lifestyle of confession and forgiveness. 

Marriage is not the union of two perfect people—it’s the union of two sinners in need of grace. Healthy marriages are built on a rhythm of honest confession and consistent forgiveness.

ANXIOUS FOR NOTHING

Praying Through the Pain

Scripture: Philippians 4:6–7, 1 Peter 5:6–7, Isaiah 54:17

Anxiety isn’t a sin—it’s a signal. And prayer is God’s invitation to bring our worries to Him. Jesus Himself prayed in anguish in Gethsemane, showing us that honest, unfiltered prayer is welcome. When we surrender instead of striving for control, we experience a peace the world can’t give or take away. This healing service is an opportunity to bring your burdens to God and receive His peace and presence.

ANXIOUS FOR NOTHING

The Perspective of Praise

Scripture: Philippians 4:4–8; Philippians 1:12–13; Acts 16:16–34

Praise isn’t about our circumstances—it’s about who God is. Even from a prison cell, Paul chose joy because his hope wasn’t chained to his situation. Praise shifts our perspective from the problem to the Provider, reminding us of God’s presence and power. Learn how daily worship and gratitude can break the grip of fear, lift your spirit, and draw you closer to the One who holds it all.
