Unity Over Winning

This week, Pastor Alex Graves closes out our Work in Progress series with a powerful and practical message titled “Unity Over Winning.” 📖 In Ecclesiastes 4:9–12, Scripture reminds us that two are better than one—and that a triple-braided cord is not easily broken. Marriage was never designed to be a competition. It was designed to be a covenant partnership built on unity, humility, and shared direction. Big Idea: Healthy marriages aren’t built by winning arguments. They’re built by walking together with Christ at the center. In this message, we’re reminded that: Unity provides strength in hardship Humility protects connection Direction matters more than domination Christ must be the third strand holding it all together Whether you’re single, dating, engaged, or married, the habits that build a healthy marriage start long before the wedding day. Great relationships don’t happen accidentally. They’re built intentionally.
