Over the months of September and October, we have posted many articles here at Servants of Grace as part of a series titled “Marriage/Parenting.” The goal of this series has been to help those who are married but don’t have kids to continue to pursue each other and those who are married to excel at parenting by the grace of God.
Marriage and parenting is hard work. The gospel provides the foundation for a healthy marriage. As we conclude this series, I encourage you to look to Jesus– He is all that you need. The writers in this series have endeavored to help you focus your marriage on the gospel with a view to help you grow in the grace of God.
I hope this series has encouraged you, exalted in King Jesus, and has helped you grow in the grace of God.
