For Better Or Worse: Cleave and Leave

Did you know the word "cleave" is one of the most interesting words in the Bible? It means to bond or intertwine—like the ligaments and tendons in a joint. But a cleaver? That’s designed to separate and dissect.

We’re breaking down the three "cleavers" that often sneak in and try to separate what God joined together:

The "Me" Cleaver: Putting your own hobbies, work, or friends before your spouse.

The "Kids" Cleaver: Making the kids the center of the universe while your marriage takes a back seat.

The "Parents" Cleaver: Letting in-laws (or your own parents) undermine the bond with your spouse.

Whether you’re in a season of "Crown Molding stress" (if you know, you know!) or you're just looking to build a God-honoring marriage, this message is for you.

Highlights include:
