Lifestyle of a Believer Marriage, Family, and Children The Fellowlaborers’ House (Milltown, NJ) Armstrong, Joe 04/11/2026
We can’t know what someone else is thinking so we have to talk to each other. This teaching covers three things we should do with regards to communication. First, we see that we are to be honest and not lie to each other, even the quick easy lies. Secondly, we are to listen so that we can know what each other are thinking. Let people talk and complain sometimes, knowing that it takes time to draw things out of people. Lastly, it looks at choosing your words. Words are dangerous, but we can choose to proactively use our words as a tool to help.

In this first of two Married Couples’ Nights for 2025, 40 couples gathered on a Saturday night at the Fellowlaborer House, with more than 100 more connected online for an evening of fellowship and two teachings, one by Mrs. Diane Carr and the other by Rev. Joe Armstrong. The teachings were simultaneously translated into Spanish so that couples in South America could participate also. The topics, both very practical, were designed to meet important needs and were handled with love, insight, humor and clear examples.

A Few Things About Marriage
Marriage, Family, and Children The Great Mystery The Fellowlaborers’ House (Milltown, NJ) Armstrong, Joe 06/21/2025
In the first part of this teaching, Rev. Armstrong sets God’s heart for marriage and the importance of following His design for it instead of the world’s. He covers how the marriage relationship is to be a living example of the Great Mystery in action, with the husband and wife’s roles being different but complementary, just as it is with the members of the Body of Christ. In the second part, he covers three things that can ruin a marriage: anger, lack of forgiveness and selfishness; and then three things that can bless a marriage: edifying words, kindness and unconditional love.

This teaching was subtitled “Looking for the heart of Saturday night” and emphasized throughout the need we have to keep that sweetness and unity and companionship that Christian marriage is designed by God to provide. Included are a number of warnings about things that can threaten that unity and mutual care one of another, as well as practical ways from God’s Word to avoid that happening or how to recover it if it has been lost. Because we have God’s Word and God’s love available to us, we can continue to change as life and marriage change, overcome obstacles, and enjoy the intimacy and fellowship of the marriage relationship.
