This fall, starting October 5, begins another in our series of Journey Spiritual Growth Campaigns. This year’s program is titled "Building Healthy Relationships."

Why Build Healthy Relationships?

What do relationships have to do with a person’s spirituality? What makes a person truly spiritual?

Jesus said that everything in the Bible points to two things: loving the Lord and loving your neighbor (Matt. 22: 32-40). He said the same two kinds of love would bring us eternal life, and to give an example He told the story of the Good Samaritan who helped a man lying wounded by the roadside. Then Jesus said we should be like that Samaritan and be a good neighbor (Luke 10:25-37).

The Lord calls each of us to live lives that are loving. He teaches us how to serve the people around us, even when it seems difficult to do so. Building Healthy Relationships is a program (based on the Sermon on the Mount) designed to explore the Lord’s teachings that support healthy, more meaningful relationships of all kinds: with co-workers, our siblings, with our parents and our children, and in our marriages. As you continue on your spiritual journey, remember that our efforts to be spiritual are not in isolation, but in community as we interact with and serve one another.
