Ind. Introduction One of God's greatest blessings to humankind is the family. Although families come in a variety of sizes and shapes, God cares for and loves each one. Families are important in our society today. However, our culture, as viewed through the lens of media, not only reflects what is happening with families today, but also influences the dynamics of family and what families do. By focusing attention on the family during Health Promotion Sunday, we will engage the health and wholeness of families.
Families struggle with many kinds of issues and demands.
But in our struggles today, we can reflect on how God fits into the family structure as well as what scripture has to say about the family. One important feature of the church, sometimes neglected, is that the church is a family made up of brothers and sisters in Christ. With God's grace we will explore how God connects families and brings them into wholeness with God's self. So often, we separate the idea of family from who the church is.
