Full Sermon
Bentonville Community Church
 

It is the second week within a new series titled, “Relationships”. Following up from last week’s “start at the beginning”, Pastor Jeni continues on preaching on the topic of dating.

One of the single best things you can do for your health is to nurture your relationships.”

“Its time to prioritize our relationships like our life depends on it, because it does.”

-Dr. Holt-Lunstad

Notes from Sunday’s Sermon:

  • In ALL relationships, empowered by the Holy Spirit, we aim to exhibit the Fruit of the Spirit.

  • God designed the joy and delight of romantic love.

  • The Bible does not endorse a specific practice for arriving at the point of marriage.

  • The purpose of dating is to end up entering into a marriage covenant.

  • If marriage is the end goal of dating, God’s best for us would be to date those who share our faith.

  • Any good and beautiful thing can become distorted & destructive when it’s used out of context.

  • The joyous testimony of Scripture & the Church is that sexual intimacy is meant to be explored & enjoyed within the marriage covenant.

Scripture to read this week:

  • Song of Songs 1-8
