Our Sunday night service at Ramoth took the form of a DVD called "Fireproof" which touched the hearts of everyone. It is the story of a young couple whose 7 year marriage has disintegrated to the point of the wife filing for divorce. The Christian father of the firefighter asks his son to go through a 40 day program via a book called "The Love Dare" in an endeavour to rebuild his relationship with his wife. It follows his initial reluctance to take up the challenge, his despondency as his wife rejects all his gestures of kindness, the changes that take place in his heart as his father leads him to Christ, his new found love for the Lord and consequently his wife and his committment to continue the program beyond the 40 days to save his marriage. The trust and love is rebuilt as his wife subsequently gives her life to Christ. The film ends with them renewing their marriage vows. It is a powerful message of how God can turn lives around if we seek and trust in him. It touched many of us to tears.
We would strongly recommend this DVD and book (obtainable from many Christian book stores) as a tool to be used in rebuilding any relationships.
