In this series we are hoping to re-present relationships in the larger context of our church family. Oftentimes we segment our relational/romantic lives from our spiritual lives. But what we are invited to is merging these things together with the extended family we can become for each other. It’s in this reality that we can pursue wholeness, accountability, healing, and love.
