Bowl 3: Restoration

This part of the joint venture is biblical reconciliation in the fullest sense of the word. Restoration fulfills God’s heart and purpose in a way that puts His redemptive characteristics and love on display. It means that you and your husband have progressively forgiven and reconciled and are now working on repairing and rebuilding your relationship and intimacy. Restoration is the best relapse-prevention plan.

Consider Jeremiah 33:6, when God revealed to Judah and Israel His plan for restoration: “Behold, I will bring to [this city] health and healing, and I will heal [My people] and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.”
