Sermon Notes
Not What You Expected: A Marriage Series
Part 2
Speaker: Rev. Ho-Ming Tsui
Scripture: Ephesians 5:18-21
Is love enough?
There is an expectation that your spouse is primarily responsible for making your dreams and desires come true.
Carrying Each Other’s Expectations:
• Distance: Apathy
• Defeat: Resentment
• Division: Score-Keeping
• Deference: “Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ” — Ephesians 5:21
The Gospel transforms me by taking away:
1. My self-centredness because it humbles me
2. My self-neediness because it affirms me
Marriage is a platform where your partner helps you become the better version of yourself.
