"The Horizontal Dimenstion of Happiness" 2b
Monday, December 06, 2010
References: Matthew 5
Last week, we began this the final message in our study of the Beatitudes. The focus is on the second half of the Beatitudes (verses 7-12 of Matthew 5), or what we've identified as the "horizontal portion". We're looking at the hallmarks of Christian maturity that would include mercy, forgiveness, pureness of heart, being a peacemaker, and the right response to persecution. Join us today as Teaching Pastor Jim Shaddix concludes this message and the study "The Pursuit of Happiness".

The Mystery of Marriage
Marriage…. It is, and has been a foundational part of civilized cultures all over the world. But, in case you hadn’t yet heard, traditional marriage has become a very politicized subject, with many special interest groups attempting to push their definition of marriage.
In 2006, Pastor Jim, preached a series of messages on marriage entitled, “The Mystery of Marriage”. No, this was NOT a commentary on the current political quagmire, but instead, a biblical review of the origins and significance of marriage. Based in Ephesians, “The Mystery of Marriage” looks at God’s purposes for marriage, the roles and responsibilities for men and women in marriage, and finally, the impact of culture’s attempts to re-define marriage.
So, whether you’re a newlywed, a marriage veteran of many years, or you are just now contemplating marriage, you’ll benefit greatly in hearing this biblical blueprint for the realities and issues of marriage. Join us for “The Mystery of Marriage”.
