Summary
A marriage cannot be happy or healthy without Christ at the center of it. In this message, Jonathan Pokluda teaches us that (1) the mindset of marriage must be sacrifice and submission, (2) the mission of marriage is sanctification through service, and (3) the mystery of marriage is that it showcases our savior.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, here's Creek, how we doing? |
| 0:02.0 | Hey, stop praying for rain, okay? |
| 0:05.0 | Like, chill with that. |
| 0:07.0 | Hey, I want to take you guys back to anatomy and physiology class, my junior year. |
| 0:13.0 | Miss Peruthi is the teacher. |
| 0:16.0 | I am failing, and she has kind of forecasted a big project. That's a significant part of our grade. |
| 0:24.9 | And she says, hey, this is coming. And so I'm like, all right, I really need a good grade on this |
| 0:28.7 | project. But the problem is, my junior year, I had taken, I had a crush on this young woman |
| 0:35.4 | in the class. We'll call her Kelly Kapowski. And so she is in the class, |
| 0:42.9 | and I have not been paying attention, and my grade reflects. But Ms. Peruthi says that she's |

| 1:31.3 | I just knew that I wanted to be partnered with Kelly. |
| 1:34.8 | And so Ms. Peruthi then rolls out the project, which is we're going to dissect a frog. |
| 1:41.7 | And this is where I learn all kinds of important things about Kelly, because our |
| 1:46.2 | grade is going to be contingent upon mutual participation. And in this moment, I learned Kelly |
| 1:53.5 | doesn't like frogs. She doesn't want to touch the frog or get any frog juice on her. |
