Welcome back for our final supplemental re|engage lesson together. The goal of this lesson is to remind us all that if we donât put into practice the things weâve learned, we will drift back to the marriages we had before re|engage began. Itâs natural to want to take a break and rest after a season of hard work. But donât stop! Use this lesson as encouragement to diligently invest in your relationship, in your pursuit of God, and in all the ways weâve explored together over the past 14 weeks.

To live the way Colossians 3 outlines, you have to stay connected to God, His Word, and His community. If youâre finding yourself in a bit of a rut in your spiritual life, try something different. Our church offers so many ways to learn, grow and be sharpened in your relationships. Just like you and your marriage, weâre not perfect. But weâre a good church that desires to pursue Jesus daily, so give something a shot and allow God to work in whatever circumstance or season you are in. Weâre here for you! So donât hesitate to reach out. For more information about us, check out: www.ccbcfamily.org

Today weâre completing the âtrilogyâ of intimacies explored in the re|engage curriculum. And this oneâs so important, because the marriage relationship is different than any other human relationship. The two have become one. And as a result, each spouse plays a unique role in the spiritual growth of the other. This lesson will provide practical ideas for how to have the spiritual intimacy that every marriage should enjoy.

Here we are in the sexual intimacy lesson. Some of you might be excited about this topic, and for others this conversation will bring up some shame, fear or painful ideas. We know thereâs a broad range of perspectives on this topic, and the reality is we ALL have some form of baggage when it comes to sex. Letâs take back the ground the Enemy has taken and re-define physical intimacy as GOOD â the way God intended.

Weâre starting a set of three âintimacyâ weeks, and today weâre talking about ⊠EVERYTHING! This lesson is aimed to get you to think about sharing all of those things on your heart and mind as you move more and more toward oneness; being fully seen, known and loved for who God made you to be â quirks, ticks and all! Our brokenness has really messed that up though. So letâs listen as Ryan points out some key ways to pursue intimacy the way God designed.

As we come into the last 5 lessons, weâre reminded that things we plan, expect and count on are sometimes just in our heads and can lead to pent up frustrations when those ideas donât pan out the way we expect them to. How do we live in a way where we donât get stuck in a cycle of resenting those people we care so much about? Letâs hear another great lesson about dealing with those common disappointments.

We're so glad youâre hanging in there and staying committed to the challenge of re|engage and the challenge of marriage. Thatâs what you call real ... commitment ... which is what weâre talking about today! The promise you made on your wedding day was a mere reflection of the big promise God made to you at the beginning of time when He designed everything â including the covenant of marriage.

Weâre back this week talking about making things right again after wrongs have been acknowledged and confessed, knowing that weâre then called to forgive. This can be incredibly hard, because itâs not normal in our culture. Weâre more likely to cancel someone whoâs offended us. But thatâs not what God did to you or to me. Your re|engage workbook contains an excellent outline for reconciliation and peace-making, so this supplemental lesson is going to focus on what gets revealed during this season of conflict. We hope you find it useful!

Weâre almost half-way through this journey, and weâre learning and processing so much! This week is all about putting what we learned about last week into action. We learned that forgiveness is core to a Christ-following lifestyle. So if thatâs true, then can I always expect to be forgiven by a Christian? And what is the best way to share the wrongs Iâve done with someone else? How can I be sure it will go well? Ryanâs going to talk about many of these things in this lesson.

This week weâre talking about the best response to being wronged â and itâs actually not what your dad told you to do on the playground! Thatâs a joke, but itâs actually a good example of the way our culture shapes us to defend rather than forgive. And when it comes to that defense, many of us tend to either stuff down and cover up our anger, or we vent it all outâtelling everyone how we were offendedâhoping that will vindicate us and make us feel better. Jesus actually gives us a counter-cultural imperative thatâs better than either of these typical choices that we tend to make. Letâs listen as Ryan unpacks forgiveness!

Welcome to your fifth week of re|engage! We like to encourage couples to "talk about everything." However, thatâs hard to do well when your motives are skewed. The goal of our communication should be mutual understanding. Not to be right, to win the argument, or get our point across. Ryanâs going to talk through ways we can begin to correct negative communication patterns that show up in our marriage, and also help us see where those habits come from.

This weekâs episode is on humility, which is the opposite of pride â and a really difficult thing to pursue in ANY relationship. Too often our focus in marriage is more on what we can get for ourselves rather than how we can serve our spouse. Ryanâs lesson really focusses in on the opportunities we have to be âlittle pictures of Jesusâ to each other in marriage. That sounds sweet, but itâs really hard to do! So letâs listen and learn.

Too many couples have a warped view of Godâs love and think that they have to somehow earn His favor. Itâs exhausting and impossible to then apply that works-based thinking to our marriages. âIâll respect him when he finally [whatever],â or âIâm going to x-y-z so heâll love me.â Thatâs not actually how God functions, so why are we constantly doing this in our relationships? We really need to understand Godâs grace in order to extend it to our spouse. Letâs listen to Ryanâs supplemental teaching on how we should start thinking about extending Godâs grace to others!

Brokenness is a difficult reality to admit in your life and marriage. It's hugely impactful when you can recognize that both you and your spouse play a part in the problems of your marriage. So if youâve come to re|engage believing your spouse is the problem, let this week be a reminder that even you fall short of Godâs standard, and that your marriage is broken because it is made up of two broken people. Letâs hear more from this teaching by Ryan McCarthy, one of the associate pastors at Christ Chapel Bible Church in Fort Worth, Texas.

Welcome to Christ Chapelâs supplemental teaching podcast for re|engage. This podcast was designed to be an addition to the core curriculum that youâll get from your re|engage workbooks. So, each week as you spend time reading, reflecting and doing the action items in your books, we want you to also take time to listen to this podcast to hear a little more about Godâs design behind the concepts.
In this first session, weâre talking about LOVE! Whether youâre listening to this and feeling peacefully in love, or youâre finding that word really difficult, we think youâll get a lot out of this teaching. Weâre joined by Matt Lantz, the West Campus Pastor at Christ Chapel Bible Church in Willow Park, Texas. And heâs going to teach us about what love really is. Enjoy!

Welcome to Christ Chapelâs supplemental teaching podcast for re|engage. We love this marriage enrichment program because it joins you and your spouse with a community that will walk with you in your marriage â no matter if it feels like youâre currently at a 2/10 or 10/10 â youâre in the right spot because youâre ready to get help in loving each other better.
This podcast was designed to be a supplement to the core curriculum that youâll get from your re|engage workbooks. So, each week as you spend time reading, reflecting and doing the action items in your workbooks, we want you to also take time to listen to this podcast to hear a little more about the theology behind the concepts. Weâve found that sometimes listening to the teachings here before doing the action items can make for a more peaceful conversation. However, some people may prefer the inverseâlistening to this podcast after the workbook content. Whichever way you do it, we think it will enrich your group discussions as well as keep these topics and teachings in the forefront of your mind throughout the week. Listen while you get ready in the morning, on your commute, or during your workout!
We believe the Bible is the best marriage book around. Because we believe that God created everythingâincluding marriageâand has a purpose beyond what makes sense to us, weâre going to teach a lot from the Bible. Itâs Godâs truth given to us for how to live â even when it seems different than whatâs popular in todayâs culture.
