Preparing for Marriage

following session 3

It was all about T-R-U-S-T in this session; an element in marriage that is so important to work at daily.

At your session, we talked about:

  1. the meaning of trust and areas you’ve found it hard to trust each other.

  2. three components to trust (reactive, measurable, takes time).

  3. scripture that points us to understanding ways God earns our trust, and how forgiveness plays a part in it.
