Reconnect!
Relationships…God created us for relationship; God Himself is a relational God choosing to live and walk with His creation. He created man and woman for relationship in marriage with the ability to have children for a unique parenting relationship. He gave us brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles and cousins. We have friends, coworkers and neighbors to have relationships with.
People and relationships are a gift - but why are they so hard??? When sin entered the world, not only did our relationship with God change, but our relationships with everyone else changed too. With sin came pride and selfishness, and even when we’re trying to do the right thing, we often make mistakes and hurt others, or they hurt us.
So how do we do this? How can we enjoy the relationships God intended with Himself, our husband or wife, our children, friends, family and everyone else we connect with? How can we reconnect?
We hope you will join us for the Reconnect series, where we will take a biblical approach to godly relationships in marriage, parenting, dating and friendships. The Reconnect series focuses on relationships for ourselves and children, as well as how to love those who are hard to love or those who we need to establish safe boundaries with.
