In The Fire

Melanie Bianco - ”Life, Love, and a Whole Lot o’ Kids!!”

Now, this was a fun conversation!!
Have you ever wondered if it’s possible to have a deep, meaningful relationship with your spouse, raise multiple kids, find community with other believers, and grow in your faith, all while having a job and not losing your mind? Well, you’re not alone in that question. I sit down with Melanie Bianco, mother of 6 and Coordinator of Thrive (Chapelgate’s Women’s Ministry), to talk about what it looks like to be in a constant state of juggling and keep your sanity… well, most of it anyway!

Dr. Paul Kooistra - ”Gospel Centered Marriage”

There’s really no other way to put this: marriage is hard work. But when it comes to marriage in God’s eyes, it can seem downright impossible. After all, who can honestly say they’re excited about putting someone else’s needs above their own?  Join me this week as I sit down with Dr. Paul Kooistra and walk through the ins and outs of what it looks like to have a Gospel-centered marriage.

LYRICS
O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,It is the night of the dear Saviour’s birth;Long lay the world in sin and error pining,'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;
ChorusFall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!O night divine! O night when Christ was born.O night, O holy night, O night divine.
Led by the light of Faith serenely beaming;With glowing hearts by his cradle we stand:So, led by light of a star sweetly gleaming,Here come the wise men from Orient land,The King of Kings lay thus in lowly manger,In all our trials born to be our friend;
ChorusHe knows our need, To our weakness no stranger!Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend!Behold your King! your King! before him bend!
Truly He taught us to love one another;His law is Love and His gospel is Peace;Chains shall he break, for the slave is our brother,And in his name all oppression shall cease,Sweet hymns of joy in grateful Chorus raise we;Let all within us praise his Holy name!
ChorusChrist is the Lord, then ever! ever praise we!His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!His pow'r and glory, evermore proclaim!

LYRICS
What child is this, who, laid to restOn Mary's lap is sleeping?Whom angels greet with anthems sweetWhile shepherds watch are keeping?
 
This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels singHaste, haste to bring him laudThe babe, the son of Mary
 
So bring him incense, gold, and myrrhCome, peasant, king, to own himThe King of kings salvation bringsLet loving hearts enthrone him
 
This, this is Christ the KingWhom shepherds guard and angels singHaste, haste to bring him laudThe babe, the son of Mary
