Description

The primary purpose for building a high octane marriage is not just to make your life better (although it no doubt will!). The principles Amy and I will share with you do not constitute a self-help remedy. The purpose in building a high octane marriage is to fulfill God's design, bring Him glory, and advance His kingdom. That's a high calling and a high privilege, with exponential ramifications. Marriages that reflect God's Kingdom life of power, joy, and unity have a supernatural impact on their kids, their families, their friends, their churches, and their communities. These "high octane" marriages have the power and authority to exercise the ministry of Jesus to the world. They are packed with credibility and spiritual authority. They are in alignment with the truth of Jesus Christ and are set free to set others free. We were created, you and I, to live Kingdom life and bring Kingdom life to others. That's what a high octane marriage is all about. God's grace and power be upon you as you pursue your own calling to a high octane marriage. Zoom, zoom, zoom!
