In this blog category – Growth in Relationships
Growth in Relationships – we are going to explore relationships from a biblical point of view. Relationships are sometimes very difficult. Human beings are not the same in many ways and if we do not understand each other, it causes conflict, misunderstandings, hurt, and rejection. This makes life not a happy place. With the help of God, the Father, Jesus our Lord and Holy Spirit as Counsellor it can be solved and understood.
Human beings were not created to be alone. Yet human relationships are probably one of life’s most difficult challenges to deal with. In God’s Word, there is a lot of help on how to make the best of relationships even though the application thereof sometimes feel as if they are impossible to achieve. However, if we look at it closely, we will see that it is not that difficult, and we can indeed be successful with the people around us and enjoy wonderful, peaceful and relaxed times together.
In this category we go on a journey of discovery of personality, influences that play a role, the dimensions of being human, thought patterns, and all aspects of men’s being, so that we can learn to understand each other better and look at each other with love and enjoy life without fear of rejection. We will be able to look at our vulnerability and criticism with a different eye.
