Marriage Re-Vows 2008


On August 30, 2008 we did something a bit crazy. We went to the local high school prop room and decked out our whole family as a wedding bridal party and had a beautiful little ceremony for our 15th Anniversary. It was a fabulous occasion with the best wedding party you could imagine--our own kids! Our friend lead us through a brief ceremony of re-stating our vows. We wanted our kids to know, and have a visual assurance, that we were committed to each other and that no matter how much turmoil there is out there in marriages and families, we stand strong in Christ.
Eph 2:4-10 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, (5) even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), (6) and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, (7) that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. (8) For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, (9) not of works, lest anyone should boast. (10) For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
