Your February Resources Are Here!
There’s no doubt that relationships are at the heart of the Christian faith. It all starts with our relationship with God and then moves to our relationships with the people around us. Building and having strong, healthy relationships is an important part of how we live out the Gospel every day. This month, we hope to point you and the families you lead to helpful resources as we all seek to encourage one another in life. Relationships can be hard, both in and out of the home, and we all need tools and resources to help us navigate the difficulties that arise with friends, family, co-workers, and others. When we learn how to foster and have healthy relationships, we are much more likely to live in the peace that God provides, and we are better positioned to fulfill the purposes He has for us.
WHAT IS IT?
This month’s resource is a family experience where parents can lead a conversation about how to strengthen relationships and connections. Real Talk: Building Stronger Relationships at Home has Scripture to read together, questions to discuss, and some closing prayers that can lead a family to stronger bonds and more unity.
HOW TO USE IT
- Download Real Talk: Building Stronger Relationships at Home and post it on your website.
- Email parents a copy of the resource and encourage them to set aside some time to read it and pray through how they can use some of the principles in their home.
- Print copies of the resource for parents to grab at church.
- Share a copy of the resource with your ministry team and discuss it together.

Whether within the home or beyond, relationships can be challenging, and we can all benefit from tools and guidance to navigate the complexities of life with friends, family, coworkers, and others. By learning to build and nurture healthy relationships, we can experience the peace that God offers and position ourselves to live in the purposes He has for our lives.
