Fighting For Your Marriage | Something Worth Fighting For (Week 3)

This week we are in week 3 in our Something Worth Fighting For series, guest speaker Rudy Cedillo delivers a passionate and personal message on the importance of fighting for your marriage. Drawing from Ephesians 5:21–33, Rudy reminds us that marriage is not just a romantic partnership, but a spiritual battleground where the enemy seeks to destroy what honors God (John 10:10). Whether you're married or single, this message highlights that everyone has a purpose and both singleness and marriage are equal paths to honoring Christ. Rudy shares lessons from his 31 years of marriage, emphasizing the power of prayer, the need for open communication, and learning to embrace healthy confrontation. He encourages couples to put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:10–18), and to love each other sacrificially—just as Christ loved us (Ephesians 5:1–2). Marriage is a covenant, not a contract; it's built on mutual commitment, not mutual benefit. With honesty and humility, Rudy calls us to fight for our spouses with the same resolve Jesus showed when He fought for us. If you want a covenantal marriage, love your spouse the way Jesus loves you.
