Relationships
by Timothy Lane & Paul David Tripp | Book Summary
Author: Timothy Lane & Paul David Tripp |
Sin has distorted our relationships so that we often view them as opportunities to advance our own selfish desires and agendas rather than glorify God. We have a sinful tendency to find our identity in our relationships rather than worshiping our Creator and finding our identity in Christ. Through the gospel and the wisdom found in God's Word, we can have the relationships that God intends for us to have for His glory. God has given us the tools we need to have the relationships He intended, and there is hope for every relationship because of Christ. |

Overview:
Relationships are simultaneously wonderful yet terrifying. They bring great joy, but are often quite messy. Still, the amazing reality is that as human beings made in God's image, we were made for relationships. They are a reflection of the fact that our God is a communal God, so our relationships are an essential part of what it means to be human.
Sin has distorted our relationships so that we often view them as opportunities to advance our own selfish desires and agendas rather than glorify God. We have a sinful tendency to find our identity in our relationships rather than worshiping our Creator and finding our identity in Christ.
