Families are something we tend to take for granted. Most of us grew up in a family for better or for worse and many of us have started our own families. And yet as much as this whole idea of family is part of God’s grand plan, all too often, it doesn’t turn out the way we’d hoped.

So join Berni Dymet as he opens God’s Word to take a look at your family – through the eyes of God.

Episode 1. God's Grand Design

Jill, yes this will be so difficult, I can’t imagine. But let me point you to two scriptures: 1 Pet 3:1-6, and 1 Cor 13:7,8. Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Wait on Him. Take your husband and your marriage each day to Him in prayer and you may be amazed at what the Lord does. In the meantime, I will share your comment with our prayer team so that we can pray for you. – Berni

Hi, really appreciate your teaching. Finding it very difficult to keep going in a marriage of 25 years that died many years ago. I wait in anticipation. I know jesus is my strength and will renew. I believe. Forgive my unbelief.
My husband doesn’t believe I don’t know how to cope. We can’t put Jesus and his teaching at the centre of rebuilding a dead marriage when my husband is not a Christian.
I’m stuck in a marriage which I can’t leave because of my Christian belief. I really struggle with the forgiveness I should practice. I have prayed and waited in anticipation
I just can’t go on
I’m so sorry
