The passage reminds us that while mountaintop moments strengthen our faith, real spiritual growth often happens in the everyday struggles of life as we learn to trust Jesus.

It is a relationship for holiness and not built on the fickle foundations of emotion. The biblical premise of marriage is submission to each other through submission to Christ. It is Christ who completes us, and relationships guided by that principle build up and heal.

Good question, since Jesus only says the word twice. But when He talks about the Church, it is very weighty.

We need the Church - to grow, to learn, to love each other.
The Church needs us - to encourage each other, to help each other.

The Church was born in song, it is an act of worship and God blesses us through the Church as we bless others.

The paradox is that in order to find his life he had to lose it. This requires a change of mindset; take your mind off the things of man and put it on the things of God.

When Jesus meets Centurion's Servant He marveled at the Centurion's faith.
Do we marvel and Jesus teaching? Does He marvel at our faith? Go deeper with Jesus. Jesus help our unbelief.
