A Growing Marriage

We loved Dr Gary Chapman's conference so much that we are bringing his recorded sessions to Dundalk Presbyterian Church on DVD. Not quite as good as in person, but the next best thing, and best of all this one is Free. Our conference is set for Friday, May 23, 7:00 - 9:00 PM and Saturday May 24, 9:30 AM - 2:30 PM. Lunch will be provided to all that register.

The A Growing Marriage Conference by Dr. Gary Chapman is being hosted and sponsored by DPC's Marriage Builders group. The sessions are for use with married couples, but engaged couples, and single adults who wish exposure to a biblical view of marriage will find the series quite helpful. The purpose of the conference is to stimulate marital growth in the following areas: communication, conflict resolution, love, handling failure, sexual fulfillment, and how to give constructive criticism.

One of our attendees said "I really didn't want to go to this conference, but I'm really glad I did -- it has changed my life and it changed my marriage!".

Dr Chapman is the author of the bestselling book The Five Love Languages, The Marriage you've Always Wanted, and several others. The recorded DVD sessions include: Communication 101, Understanding and Experiencing Love, Initiating Positive Change, Making Sex a Mutual Joy, and How To Share the Things That Bug You.

The conference is filled with lots of humor and practical insights based on sound biblical principles. In today’s cultural climate, we cannot afford to neglect our marriages. This experience is guaranteed to make a positive change in you or your money back!

Crown Bible Study

Our current project working along with my good friend Keith Goodson is to lead a Crown Biblical Financial Study for Life Groups. The Biblical Study is a 10 week in-depth study of what Scripture teaches about money and possessions.

Life Group Members have confirmed that marriages are being strengthened and individuals are finding their way out of debt. They are also becoming consistent savers, generous givers, and prudent consumers. Most importantly, people are entering into a closer relationship with Jesus Christ as they learn to apply His Word. Groups meet for 2 hours every week and meetings include Scripture memorization and interactive discussions. For more info. check the links section and click on Crown.

This is a excellent Bible Study on, why from the biblical concepts, and how from practical applications, to manage the material things God have provided us with. I highly recommend it for everyone. This study is for couples and individuals both young and old who want to fix their financial problems and also for those that want to avoid such issues.

Visit Crown for some inspiring Testimonials and the Helen Nelson video which is at The Heart of the Matter.

Our Bible Study is held at the church and in a home setting once a week in the evenings from 7-9 PM. The meetings began with an orientation on Feb. 23, with classes on Mar 8, 15, 22, 28; April 5, 12, 19, 25; May 3, 10. Hopefully we'll provide you some additional comments on this blog when we have completed our initial study.

Thanks to our first Life Group members, Marlene, Keith, Sylvia, Sue, & Michael, for making this possible by participating. Thanks also to my name sake Keith for co-leading our group. We hope that this is just the beginning of a number Crown Biblical Financial Studies for Life Groups, as we work together in His service towards faithful stewardship.
