When God created marriage, He created four simple yet profoundly important laws to protect this sacred relationship. In his new series, The Four Laws of Love, Pastor Jimmy Evans shares how honoring these laws sets a marriage up for success.
This weekend, Pastor Jimmy Evans shares a message titled “Disarming Anger & Resolving Conflicts,” where he talks about how married couples can deal with conflicts in a healthy, biblical way.
