Reorienting...part 2

In this time of "reorientation" we find ourselves in a culture of fear and uncertainty. We are on the road of "reorientation" but we can't map the destination because we can't visualize it. We have never been down this road before and it is affecting our marriage and family relationships. 

How much are we going to operate out of fear and how much out of love?

---

We have a window of opportunity to rebuild the foundation of all real love and care — a circle of people, related to one another as brother and sister, who know and are known, love and are loved, and who move out in service to the world.
This can be an indescribable gift. And if we steward this gift well, not retreating into protective huddles but assembling in small, welcoming communities of love, we may even realize a third, most audacious hope.    Andy Crouch

The question we left you with in our previous blog was; "Are you experiencing an FFT, regarding your marriage and family relationships right now?" Author, speaker, social scientist Brene Brown describes FFT's as "first times"...she says; it is "hard to be new at things – from small things to global pandemics. When we have no relevant experience or expertise, the vulnerability, uncertainty, and fear of these firsts can be overwhelming."

We need each other, to be connected to the people who know us and love us. Monique and I desire to see you deeply connected, not only in your marriage and family, but also with a few others who can support you in the practical day to day journey with Jesus. 

We are offering, this month, online marriage workshops that will connect you with others and help you to live out of love not fear with family and friends. For more information, contact us here.  This is a first step in a "first time" journey.
