To Build Spiritual Relationships With Family

We want to strengthen families by seeing the whole family love coming to church and growing spiritually (Ecc.4:12). Yet, we realize attending a service together doesn’t make family members connect about spiritual topics, so we don’t even have them sitting together in service. How does this work, we believe that by keeping things fresh for everyone in the family, it will foster spiritual conversations at home. Jesus wasn’t boring; He was on the cutting edge of His time (Matt.9:17). He was ‘always fresh’ like Tim Horton’s, so the service each family member attends is designed to be exciting for them. If our dream is realized, family members will discuss weekly questions about the message because the message engaged each of them in their own way.

How we will strive to build spiritual relationships with family ... Simultaneous generation-specific Sunday services on the same sermon topic. We will start with kids and adult services with the dream of adding a youth service. We will connect with each generation through the use of media, pop-culture, and issues related to their life stage. In the weekly bulletin, 3 questions will be provided for families to discuss the topic over lunch that day.
