Soulmates: 5 Steps to Deepening the Soul of Your Marriage

DAY 2 OF 5

Step 2: Attending a Church Together

The church is the place where believers can love one another (1 John 4:12), encourage one another (Hebrews 3:13), “spur” one another to love and good works (Hebrews 10:24), serve one another (Galatians 5:13), instruct one another (Romans 15:14), honor one another (Romans 12:10), and be kind and compassionate to one another (Ephesians 4:32). Church is a community where we can socialize and support each other.

God has placed an eternal longing or sense of eternity in the human heart. Humans operate in a different way than other forms of life. We possess an innate knowledge that there is something more to life than what we can see and experience in the here and now.

Attending church together can give us guidance on how to follow God, improve our spirituality, and live better lives. You can be uplifted by fellow believers and by the opportunity to serve and worship. As you listen to sermons and study God’s teachings, you will have opportunities to receive insight from God through others. He wants to communicate with you, and the church is a good place to hear His voice in your heart and mind.

However, we must remember that the church is simply a body of perfectly imperfect people. We can never expect perfection in a church. Otherwise, we would never be able to attend. Learning to extend the hand of grace is a key to deep fellowship with others.

Action step: Commit to regularly attending a place to worship for growing and learning together as fertile ground for marital growth.
