"Marriage is a Sacrifice" with Kaleb Cook - 1 Corinthians 13:1-8

Описание: DIVINE DESIGN: WEEK 2

This message explores the truth that marriage is built on sacrifice. The love required in marriage is not rooted in feelings, but in a daily choice to act in love—expressed not merely through words, but through self-giving action. The Apostle Paul paints a clear picture of what true love looks like, and when applied to marriage, it reveals a relationship shaped by service, humility, and sacrifice for one another. God did not simply declare His love from a distance; He demonstrated it through the cross, giving His Son, Jesus, as the ultimate act of sacrificial love. This message challenges the cultural tendency to enter relationships focused on what we can get, take, or receive, and instead invites students to see that a godly marriage is only possible when both people are willing to lay themselves down in love for the other.
