Before we talk about husbands and wives…before we unpack power struggles, dissatisfaction, faithless seasons, or unfailing love…we start with a bigger question: Are we ready?

In this opening message, we step back and look at marriage through the most powerful lens Scripture gives us, Christ and His Bride. From Ephesians 5 to Revelation 19, the Bible reveals that earthly marriage is meant to reflect a greater love story: the perfect Groom who gave everything for His imperfect bride. Jesus didn’t love us because we were flawless, He loved us enough to make us radiant.

Whether you’re married, single, dating, divorced, or hopeful, this message isn’t just about wedding vows, it’s about spiritual preparation. The Groom is coming. The question is not whether the wedding will happen…the question is whether we are living ready.
