Rekindled at Home
Ignite a stronger marriage.
On a scale from 1-10, would you characterize your marriage as a 2 or a 10? Is it a glimpse of the beauty of heaven or a foretaste of the horrors of hell? No matter where you are in your marriage though, we want to help you take little steps in building a better relationship with your spouse.
What if you were intentional about this time suddenly made available because of this pandemic and social distancing? What if you determined to use this time to build a better relationship with your spouse? We encourage you to take advantage of the following opportunities to become more intentional during the next 8 weeks.
Are you ready to take the Rekindled Challenge?
The Rekindled Challenge is simple: have one date night per week for the next 8 weeks with your spouse. Obviously, these are unique times in our lives so restaurants and other public events are off the table. You’ll be doing most of your dating at home. So put the kids to bed early and feel free to cook at home or order in and enjoy dating your spouse!
To help you out, we have provided eight date-night "assignments" that can help you rekindle commitment and romance in your relationship. Be sure to start with “Reignite.” This will help you prepare well for the Rekindled Challenge.

Rekindled Blog
We often say that discipleship happens in relationships. Because often, we learn more those we live, work and worship with rather than books or talks. Each week during the Rekindled Challenge, we are asking members of Faith Fellowship to share a memory, thought, or something God has taught them through their marriage.
