New Year’s Revolutions – Restore Relationships

Pastor David finishes up this series with practical tools to help you restore broken or fractured relationships.Scripture: Matthew 5:23-24

Discussion Topics:

1. On Sunday we discussed how “fear” was a driving force that keeps us from reconciling relationships. Why is that? What are some other reasons that keep us from making relationships right?
2. Read I John 4:20 and discuss. Is is possible to be right with God and not right with a fellow brother or sister? Why?
3. Anytime you need to restore a relationship you need to speak the truth tactfully (Proverbs 12:18). Why is this approach better that attacking, passive, or abrasive?
4. Colossians 1:19-22 says that Jesus gave his life, even to death, to restore a relationship with a sinful mankind. How far should we go to restore relationships? How do we humble ourselves, even to the point of death?
