Big Idea: God's heart for you and your family is that you would build a legacy for yourself and your children's children. God has a “power” plan for your family, and it starts with a power couple.

Key Scripture: Acts 18:1-3 - 1 Then Paul left Athens and went to Corinth. 2 There he became acquainted with a Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently arrived from Italy with his wife, Priscilla. They had left Italy when Claudius Caesar deported all Jews from Rome. 3 Paul lived and worked with them, for they were tentmakers just as he was.

Main Idea: Aquila and Priscilla had the power of stay. They realized how important it was to remain. Here are three powerful words we see in action within their relationship that gave them the power to stay.

1. Stay Together

Power couples build a life of closeness within their relationship through intimacy, proximity, and possession. Togetherness will require us to give up some things we consider ours for the sake of stewarding us as a couple well.

Question (Married):
Are you and your spouse together enough? What is one way you could grow in togetherness?

Question (Single):
How can you cultivate a sense of togetherness in your future relationships or within your community?

2. Stay True

Power couples remain faithful even when life gets tough. Infatuation is the easy part but remaining faithful to your love will require effort. Stay true in your pursuit of one another and be uncommon in a world of broken vows.

Question (Married):
Do you need a fresh commitment to your spouse? As a spouse, what are some ways we can pursue one another this week?

Question (Single):
How can you prepare yourself now to be faithful in your future relationships?

3. Stay Tender

Power couples learn to be filled with both grace and empathy for one another. Our words and even our body language are powerful. We can build up or tear down with the tongue, and we can build walls or draw others in with body language.

Question (Married):
How can we be better with our words, attitudes, and actions towards our spouse?

Question (Single):
How can you practice speaking and acting with grace and empathy in your current relationships and future ones?
