faith

Our faith in Christ is central to our marriage and family.  We would be nothing without Him and know that we have hope because of Him.  I wanted to include these few paragraphs that Matt had written up for the back of our wedding program a few years back to share more of what our faith is about...

The Lord Jesus has been very kind to both of us, before and after coming to know each other. It is only by His grace and lovingkindness that we “found” each other, and it is only by his grace and lovingkindness that we will make it through our lives together. He has given us a love for each other that no man can conjure up, and only by dependence upon Him can we make it through the storms and trials of life.

Jesus, in one of His parables, describes two different men; one who built his house on sand, and one who built his house on the rock. When the storms came, the one who built his house on sand (his own understanding) was washed away with his house in the flood, but the one who built his house on the rock (faith in Jesus Christ) endured the storm and was not washed away. It is our prayer that you will find the One who will hold you and give you joy and hope when the storms and trials of life seem to overtake you.
