Truth & Honesty (April 20, 2008)



Hi everyone, As we think about "Becoming a Family of Purpose" I want to put these challenges before you. I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

Pastor Rick

Here are this week's challenges.

1. Create a family activity that can build a bridge to your neighbors. Perhaps you could bake some cookies, rake their lawn, invite them over for a game night. The idea here is that we are building relationships in a way that intentionally pursues people with God's love ­ just like God pursued Adam and Eve.

2. Memorize 1 John 1:8-9; Ephesians 4:32.

3. In a lifestyle where we have little time to connect with each other it's often difficult to work through issues in our families. This means that it's even more difficult to build a context of truthfulness in our families and our youth often do not see our faith and zeal for God. What can we do about this problem?

4. Is there ever a time of 'tmi' ­ 'too much information'? Should we share everything with our kids or are there things that need to be kept to those who are parents?
