    Healing The Hurts In Families

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 4, 2001
    based on 104 ratings
     | 13,965 views

    Healing the relationships in our homes involves 1. Honest confession. 2. A willingness to stop the things that hurt the other person. 3. Opening our hearts to them once again and allowing them to come in.

    In the Scripture reading this morning, we find one of the most dysfunctional families in the Bible. The irony is that it is a family led by one of the most godly men in the Old Testament — King David. David is described as a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14), and he was. But he was ...read more

    This is a message on how to use God’s word to build stronger relationships with all members of the family (even with those who don’t know the Lord).

    2 Samuel 13:24-31 Tells of one of the most dysfunctional families in the Bible. Consider this family : The husband commits adultery.

     | 6,605 views

    As great a king as David was, he was still a human king with all the flaws of any human being. It would take the coming of Jesus before we had a king who truly reflected God’s heart in all he did; whose leadership would fully reflect God’s character.

    What we’re looking at today is not pretty. Incest, rape, murder, political intrigue leading to a coup d’état, David running for his life. And again we wonder what to make of it all. Why is it in here? Well, there are a couple of reasons it’s in here. One is to show how quickly God’s judgement on ...read more
