Millions of married couples have pledged to "love and to cherish, until death do us part." Most of us understand and get the love part... but what does it mean to cherish your spouse? Why do we say it once at the wedding and then rarely ever mention it again? In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), bestselling author Gary Thomas draws on personal stories and teachings from the Bible to show how cherishing can have a powerful effect on marriage. Learning to truly cherish each other turns marriage from an obligation into a delight. It lifts marriage above a commitment to a precious priority. Cherish is the melody that makes a marriage sing. If you find yourself going through the motions in your marriage, Thomas will walk you and your spouse through real ways to reverse the pattern: Erase contempt and honor your spouse Stop comparing and focus on the unique traits in your spouse Let go of hurts and forgive your spouse Go beyond serving and showcase your spouse Don't stop trying. The more you cherish your spouse, the more you will cherish your spouse. Many couples survive by gritting their teeth and holding on. Or they find themselves just "going through the motions" in their relationship. But cherishing your spouse can reverse this pattern. Cherishing can breathe light, hope, and new life into a marriage--even one marred by neglect and disrespect. The Cherish Study Guide includes video discussion questions, Bible exploration, and personal study and reflection materials for in-between sessions. Sessions include: To Love and to Cherish Your Honor Taking Your Marriage to the Next Level Cherishing Your Unique Spouse This Is How Your Spouse Stumbles Keep on Cherishing Designed for use with the Cherish Video Study (9780310080749), sold separately.
In this four-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), Chris Tomlin and Darren Whitehead share a fresh perspective from the worship practices of the ancient world to show what it really means to praise God. They explain that in the Jewish culture, something extraordinary happened when God's people gathered to worship him. It was more than just singing-it was a declaration, a proclamation, and a time for the people to fully embody praise to God for who he is and what he has done. In the book of Psalms, the writers used seven distinct words that are translated into English as praise. However, as Chris and Darren point out in this study, each of these Hebrew words actually represents a different aspect of what it means to truly worship God: - Yadah: to revere or worship with extended hands - Halal: to boast, celebrate, and be clamorously foolish - Zamar: to celebrate in song and in music - Towdah: to give thanksgiving for things not yet received - Barak: to kneel before God and bless him - Tehillah: to sing a spontaneous song to God - Shabach: to commend, glory and triumph Holy Roar will provide insights and encouragement for group members to deepen their practice of praise and they learn about the deeper meanings of these words and put them into practice. Sessions include: 1. The Shout of Praise 2. The Posture of Praise 3. The Music of Praise 4. The Expectation of Praise Designed for use with the Holy Roar Video Study (sold separately).
