We shot this video as part of our marriage series, Love Handles: Getting a GRIP on God's Design for Marriage. It was a lot of fun to shoot! These are our good friends of ours from our small group. They were good sports to let us dump actual garbage in their bed!
I actually had this idea back in Vegas but never got around to filming it. It is based on the scripture in Hebrews 13:4 about not letting the marriage bed be "defiled."It's a funny but all-too-true picture of the garbage couples bring into the marriage but never deal with. They just try to ignore it, hoping it will go away or at least not cause too much trouble. But sooner or later, it begins to stink up the relationship until it has to be dealt with. If both will realize they both need God's grace and stop expecting each other to fulfill them, they can "take out the trash" so to speak and lay it at the foot of the cross.
Hope you enjoy it as much as we did at Church at the Ridge!
