Dear family,

This morning, we kicked off a new series called “Fighting for Family.” It’s about conflict reconciliation, not resolution. See, as God’s people we aren’t as concerned about resolving a problem as we are saving people, restoring relationships, and keeping people close to Jesus. That’s what this whole series is all about.

We’ll work hard to get the sermon uploaded tomorrow, but for now you can find the sermon as part of the service here.

Here’s what you can expect in this series. The first four weeks are about the vertical relationship and your relationship with God. That’s going to be the overriding emphasis and focus. We’re going to take time to unpack your own hearts and see the root of conflict. We’re going to take time to rest in the peace of our standing with God and enjoy the gift of forgiveness that we have received from God. Before we can talk about forgiving another and moving toward reconciliation, we have to save you from your sins. Then, and only then, can we think about the horizontal relationships.

That’s also why we’re providing the tools that we are. Along with a sermon each week, there will be five devotions and reflection questions. We want to take you further up and deeper into the truth of God’s Word. That takes time. So, I want to encourage you to dig into God’s Word with us.

We trust that God, through his Word and by his Spirit, will do his work in our hearts.

God Bless it and us!

Pastor Nate
