PCC begins a new sermon series on April 27.

What did you expect when you got married? If you’re single, what do you expect? Intimacy? Romance? 50/50? What do you or did you think it would be like?

Truth be told, we all (often without even recognizing it) approach marriage with expectations. When and if these ‘ideals’ of ours are not then met, gradual resentment and/or outright conflict usually occurs.  Wouldn’t it be amazing if your expectations matched your significant other’s expectations because they were both in line with the Author of Marriage’s expectations?

In this series PCC will highlight the fact that God actually has expectations or a DESIGN for marriage, a design that when accepted as our own, causes even struggling marriages to move toward life!

Services begin at 9:30 and 11:00 a.m. The church is located at 1170 S Pendleton Ave. in Pendleton. For more information, call (765) 778.2156 or log on to www.pendcc.org.
