Why Take Time Teaching Marriage.

Many people always ask the marriage restoration network team that with all of the many problems in the world, why should you consider spending your time and talents to help strengthen marriage? Our answer is that before institutions were created, God created marriage. Also the first bond of society is marriage. Marriage is the foundation of the family, and the family is the foundation of society. If we strengthen marriage, we strengthen the family, we strengthen the children and we strengthen the community.
If your goal is to help improve the world, strengthening marriage is one of the best places to start. If you now find former street kids now happily at home, it is because God has used us to help their mom and dad get along better.
And we whole-heartedly agree, because marriage is portrayed throughout the Bible as a living picture of Christ’s love for the church. How much nearer or dearer could you get to pleasing God’s heart than to improve your own marriage so that it reflects the love of Christ, and then reach out to help others to improve theirs as well?
We at M.R.N.U spend most of the time helping married couples for it’s because the love of Christ compels us. To us helping married couples makes it worth every bit of time, energy, and money we’ve spent. We consider it a wonderful privilege to participate with God in this awesome ministry.

there is so much more that needs to be and could be done, if there were more of us working together on this worthy cause.

Marriage Tip

Marriage tip to the married couples
Did you know that if you don't like yourself, you are never going to like anybody else, and you won't be able to help your spouse like himself or herself? You will spend all your time trying to prove your own value. Healing first comes by accepting yourself, knowing that where you are today is not where you will end up, and knowing that God is continually perfecting you, too. We all need to accept the unconditional love of God and acknowledge the fact that God doesn't love us because of what we do - but because of who we are. 
Our decisions should always have our spouse's interests in mind. Even a mediocre marriage requires sacrifice. It is important to understand that true love gives of itself. 

Sacrifice means you are not going to have your way all the time. This means both the husband and wife are called to love each other with unconditional love. There has to be sacrifice of selfish desires if a couple is going to enjoy a triumphant marriage.

Marriage Is All About Giving.

The greatest marriages are built on teamwork. A mutual respect, a healthy dose of admiration, and a never-ending portion of love and grace, Once we figured out that we could not change each other, we became free to celebrate ourselves as we are.  Love is the greatest gift when given. It is the highest honor when received.

Marriage Tip

Marriage tip for those who cherish marriage as a gift from God to us
Being in a long marriage is a little bit like that nice cup of coffee every morning – I might have it every day, but I still enjoy it. Always remember A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.

Great Marriage

Marriage is like any other work, like you give in some extra time on every job you want to be done, the same you can do to your marriage. The difference between an ordinary marriage and an extraordinary marriage is in giving just a little ‘extra effort’ every day, as often as possible, for as long as we both shall live.

Will You Join Hands With Us?

Will You Join Hands With Us? Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. Revelation 19:7.
These days there is a debate going on around the world about sexuality and where men are allowed to get married.  God designed sexual expression to unite a man and a woman in marriage and to represent the union of Christ and His Bride, The Church.
Now, more than ever, the Church must be clear on understanding and proclaiming that truth, with boldness and grace.
For decades now, we've watched many prominent people and even mainline denominations discuss and argue about what the Bible says about marriage and sexuality, to the point where some now embrace and celebrate same-sex marriage.
Even though some in the Church are faltering, Marriage Restoration Network Uganda remains dedicated to teaching the true word of God and affirming God's design for marriage and sexuality. We're committed to teaching and equipping this generation and the next about God's sacred plan for marriage and family. Yet we can't do it alone, we need all of you who think marriage is between a man and woman to join us in this fight by helping us reach many places. Remember what the bible says in Ecclesiastes 4:12 “And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” If you stand with us, we can accomplish much and the name of the Lord will be glorified.

Married Couples Should Always Think About.

Something married couples to think about
GOD DESIGNED MARRIAGE.
That means that He knows best how it should operate. His Word gives us the principles we need for satisfying marriages. Since God designed marriage, it takes three to make a good marriage: God, the man, and the woman. For a Christian to marry an unbeliever is not only to disobey God; it is to enter marriage lacking something essential. Marriage has been described as a triangle with God at the top: the closer each partner moves to God, the closer they move toward each other. The further each moves from God, the further they move from each other. As soon as Adam and Eve disobeyed God, they experienced alienation from each other and Adam began blaming Eve for his problems (3:7, 12). Broken marriages always involve at least one partner moving away from God. So the starting place in having a marriage according to God’s design is genuine conversion and a daily walk with God.
