Why "Sparrow" Ministries?
For the first couple of weeks after we put up our new backyard bird feeders, sparrows seemed to be the only birds that found it. We wanted to see the pretty, colorful birds -- cardinals, woodpeckers, orioles, yellow and green finches -- but all we were getting were sparrows. And even though birds of different color and size have finally found our feeders, sparrows are still the most frequent and most numerous visitors. And that got us thinking... God seems to have a special place in His heart for sparrows, and for each one of us.
God is aware and takes notice of every sparrow, and He cares even more about each of us. Every person matters to God and every marriage matters to God. In the Old Testament we read: “Even the sparrow finds a home, and the swallow builds her nest and raises her young at a place near your altar, O Lord Almighty.” (Psalm 84:3)
In the New Testament, Jesus picks up this theme: “You can buy two sparrows for only a copper coin, yet not one sparrow falls from its nest without the Father being aware of it.” (Matthew 10:29), and then goes on to add: “and you are worth more to God than an entire flock of sparrows.” (vs. 31)
What Makes Sparrow Unique
We believe God’s original intent and design for marriage is a mutually-submissive partnership of husband-and-wife equals, without hierarchy.
For couples who attend a weekend workshop or conference, we offer the opportunity for follow-up coaching, either privately or in a small group setting. The teaching at our workshops and our coaching is couple-to-couple, with every Sparrow Coach sharing authentically and vulnerably from what they have discovered over their years of marriage.
We believe that most surface problems have deeper roots, so we offer hope-filled support, practical tools, and customized growth plans to help couples get to the heart of the matter, not just deal with the presenting issues.
