Good morning. How are you? I want to ask you to turn to Genesis chapter 2. We're going to continue our series on elevate, breaking through to new levels in life.

And we're talking about how to go to a new level in five different areas.

The first was faith, now we're in the area of family, then freedom, finances and fun.

And we spent four weeks on faith, how to go... freedom, finances, and fun.

And we spent four weeks on faith, how to go to a new level in your personal relationship

with God.

And now we're in the family and we've already had two weeks because Pastor Jimmy Evans and Pastor Jeff Drought spoke on family for the last two weeks while I was out.

Pastor Jimmy Evans hosts the television program, Marriage Today, is a good friend of mine, and a pastor Jeff Drotte one of our executive

pastors here I told Jeff last night I said listen you can stop having people come

up to me and tell me how good your message was, okay?

I get it, all right?

But I'm grateful that when I'm out you're being fed and I know you're being fed.

And so I'm going to talk now for two weeks on marriage.

We're going to talk about marriage. And I want to say something first of all

to those of you who are married. If you are here and you are married, don't listen to these two

messages for your spouse.

You are the one that needs help, okay?

So listen for yourself.

Secondly, I want to say if you're here and you're not married if you're

single or widowed or divorce please don't hear any condemnation, don't feel like

that the messages don't apply to you because I promise you the Holy Spirit will apply

it to you.
