Fireproof

Before I left for Kosovo, Sherry and I went to see the movie Fireproof. We left thinking it was a good movie but some of the stuff in it seemed idealistic. Yet, we both thought that what is often missing is idealism and a picture of how things should work and can work if we were practicing the principles God intended. I did not think much more about it much for awhile.
Then about two months ago, an officer came up to me and said he needs pre-marital counseling. Moreover, that they were doing fine but now they have some problems. We started meeting once a week. Then we discussed doing the 40 days mentioned in the Fire Proof movie. He purchased the journey and the movie for him and his fiancée. He asked me to meet with her. We met over the email and discussed what they are going through. Both are reading the book, watched the movie and today he and she said that the past is behind them and they are moving onto the future together and that wedding bells are back in view.
