BRISCOES

The Briscoes - former pastors at Elmbrook Church in Milwaukee - spoke at our area pastors meeting today. Both of them are amazing communicators. Here are some takeaways from today's session:

- What is the secret to a long and happy marriage? Keep your promises ----- and live a long time.

- We say 'balance' between marriage and ministry is vitally important. But Webster's Dictionary says "balance" means maintaining an equilibrium between two opposing forces. Are marriage and ministry opposing forces? They are not. Both are ordained by God; both are predicated on service; both are motivated by love.

- View your marriage as a ministry God has called you to.

And be blessed.
