A sermon over the relationships that we have with other people. This sermon asks four hard questions. What relationships needs to be initiated? What relationship needs to be nurtured? What relationship needs to be restored? What relationships needs to be severed? When relationships are lived out according to the guidelines that God has set in place they can be a wonderful thing. They are a bare essential to the Christian walk. How are your relationships?
