I dare you..

Yesterday, we started the Love Dare series at Lifepoint. I love writing that!
Pat is preaching through the Song of Solomon. Yes, you read that right! How funny is it that we had the largest, non-holiday Sunday, on this particular day?

As a part of this series, we are going through the Fireproof small group series and reading the Love Dare for 40 days. For those of you not familiar, the recent moving Fireproof uses a book called, the Love Dare to help a marriage heal. I must admit, confess, lay it out there, that I did not have high expectations of this movie. Lifepoint showed the movies last night in our Auditorium and let’s just say, I almost shed a tear! This movie totally exceeded my expectations of average acting, slow story line and “Christian” cheesiness. I get really nervous when something is labeled, “Christian” and it then only mediocre in quality. I think if you are going to put it out to the world to represent Jesus, you better come with excellence.

I think this movie is a must see for any married couple, no matter how good, bad, ugly or pretty your marriage is. It is just a great reminder of what a covenant of marriage should look like.

Jason and I started the Love Dare challenge today and I think we have both done just fine! Day 1 is about showing patience. I really didn’t have reason to be impatient with him today, so it was great! Or maybe, I just didn’t look for a reason to be impatient!

What a great month to commit to your marriage! Check back this week for a great book giveaway!!! One of my most favorite books for us girls on the subject of intimacy! Maybe that will hook you to check back!
