Family Prayer Time - S01E009 - Architecture (France)

https://vimeo.com/702798379

Peter & JoJo get together to encourage us, as always, to pray as a family. And they continue their series on using objects to help us stay focused in prayer.

This week, JoJo & Peter continue to inspire us into praying for different countries, nations, or places in the world by using, this time, architecture or buildings found in locations within countries.

Peter and JoJo encourage us to find replicas or photographs of architecture, buildings or constructions that are either infamous or simply located in a specific country to remind us of that country for which we want to pray.

With a photograph of the Eiffel Tower in front of them Peter and JoJo pray for France.

C’est la Vie!

Family Prayer Time - S01E010 - Ramadan

https://vimeo.com/705071089

@Cherishingsparrows2020

Peter & JoJo get together to encourage us, as always – to pray as a family. This time, as suggested by Darlene from DingDash, Peter and JoJo pray for people across the world who are partaking in Ramadan.

Ramadan is a religious time of fasting for a whole month, from dawn to sunset – for Muslims to devote time to their Religion. This year Ramadan started on 2nd April, and lasts 30 days.

Peter and JoJo pray for people practising Ramadan around the world who are devoting time for prayer and reflection to get closer to God.

It is good to take time to seek God and the bible tells us to:

‘Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.’ (Matthew 6:33)

Marriage Matters, ‘Friend or Foe?’, S01E014

https://vimeo.com/702905677

In this week’s Marriage Matters, Andy B and Jo talk about friends, whether they are friends of the wife, friends of the husband or both or whether they are friendships formed before or after marriage. And Andy and Jo consider how these friendships can affect our marriages for good or bad. The idea of Friend or Foe comes from wartime and so-called friends could turn out to be enemies of your marriage causing more harm than good, on the other hand a healthy friendship can enhance and strengthen a marriage.

The Take Away
Andy and Jo were surprised by how much is written about friendships in the bible and Jo could see how the bible shows the importance of healthy friendships.

Andy challenges us to consider our friendships in the light of scripture and to think about whether we have friendships that are detrimental to our marriage.

Sunday PLUS, Proverbs 2

https://www.berrybunch.family/sunday-plus-proverbs-2/

Tomorrow (Sunday 1st May, 2022) we’ll be hosting our second Zoom, LIVE, Family discipleship group of Sunday PLUS – which you are very welcome to join. It starts from 5pm (UK time) and lasts for no more than 30 minutes. They happen monthly on Sundays.

We’ll be carrying on with our look at the book of Proverbs, in the Old Testament, and what it can teach us: the first one, which we created following a request from some dear friends, went down super well so we’re looking forward to doing it all again.

As usual we’ll have Andy B, Jo Jo and Peter, with a little help from Dave the Dog!

Sunday PLUS, S01E002

Dave the Dog joins Jo Jo in the studio and, well, mostly together, they help Andy B take a look at the second chapter of Proverbs, which is rammed full of wisdom.

Dave the Dog comes to realise that using a permanent marker on his friend's head is not using much in the way of wisdom - at least he gets there in the end!

The BerryBunch

Sunday PLUS happens around the world at 5pm (UK time). We'll publish the video at 8pm the same day.

@daniel

Interesting point

Although fasting should be a common thing for a Christian anyway, entertainment (distraction) isn't in the bible and we're warned against abstaining from sex in marriage unless very briefly and only in agreement with our spouse...

Like your brakes analogy though

Andy B

Just read Roman 3....anybody else read this chapter and thought...say what?!?
