Resource used as part of our sermon study: Emotionally Healthy Spirituality by Peter Scazzero
Weekly Spiritual Nourishment
• Genesis 50:15-21; Ephesians 1:18-19; Hebrews 12:1
Weekly Spiritual Reflection
• What might be some sinful (even perhaps painful) family patterns of your past playing out in the present?
Weekly Spiritual Application
• With courage and strength in Christ, what changes are now necessary in order to break the unhealthy norms passed down?
Principles:
•“Family patterns from the past are played out in our present relationships without us necessarily being aware of it… The blessings and sins of our families going back two to three generations profoundly impact who we are today.” ... “Discipleship requires putting off the sinful patterns of our family of origin and relearning how to do life God’s way in God’s family.” Peter Scazzero (Emotional Healthy Spirituality)
