Relationship Reset

Fight Right

Philippians 2:1-8 and Matthew 7:12 provide a powerful framework for handling conflict in relationships. Philippians calls us to approach others with humility, selflessness, and the mindset of Christ, prioritizing their needs above our own. Matthew 7:12, the Golden Rule, challenges us to treat others as we want to be treated, fostering mutual respect and empathy. Together, these verses teach us to fight for the relationship, not to win arguments or prove we are right. Instead of seeking victory, we seek understanding, reconciliation, and unity, valuing the person and the connection over being right. This approach fosters healthy, grace-filled relationships that reflect Christ’s love. 

 Scripture Reading: Philipians 2:1-8

 ‘So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.’ Matthew 7:12 (NIV)

 ‘Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.’  Ephesians 5:1 (NIV)

Relationship Reset

Week 1: The Power of Words

Pastor Scott begins a two-week series rooted in biblical wisdom, Relationship Reset. You will discover the path to thriving relationships and learn how to restore, strengthen, and bring life to your most important relationships.

 Scripture Reading: Ephesians 4:29 + Proverbs 18:21

Ephesians 4:29 and Proverbs 18:21 together emphasize the incredible power of our words. Proverbs 18:21 reminds us that our words hold the power of life and death, while Ephesians 4:29 urges us to speak only words that build up and give grace. Practically, this means recognizing that our words can either uplift and encourage or wound and destroy. Speaking positively brings life, strengthens relationships, and reflects God’s grace. Conversely, negative or careless words can harm, discourage, and break trust. These verses challenge us to be mindful of our speech, using it as a tool to bless and nurture others.

Life is Hard – God is Good

God Forgives

Exodus 34:4–7 paints a picture of a God who is both holy and merciful, forgiving wickedness, rebellion, and sin. Today, Pastor Luke Gordon unpacks the transformative power of God’s forgiveness—a forgiveness that reaches beyond our failures and restores us to His presence. What does it mean to embrace His mercy, even when we feel undeserving? And how can we reflect this grace in our relationships with others? Join us as we explore the boundless forgiveness of God and the hope it brings to our lives.

Life is Hard – God is Good

God Is Slow to Anger (and incredibly kind)

If God is good, why is life sometimes so hard? The Bible reveals that things aren’t as they should be. Brokenness is everywhere, including in us. But the story of Scripture and the mission of God is one of rescue, redemption, and restoration. As we begin the New Year, this teaching series invites us to approach life’s challenges with a fresh perspective, seeking the power of the Spirit, the restoring love of Christ, and the faithful goodness of God in every area of our lives.

In Exodus 34:4–7, we encounter the profound nature of God revealed to Moses: a God who is compassionate, gracious, and slow to anger. What does it mean for us to reflect this aspect of God’s character in our relationships, workplaces, and daily lives? This week, we’ll explore the richness of God’s patience, the power of His steadfast love, and the call to embody this same patience in a world that often thrives on impatience. Join us as we uncover how understanding God’s slowness to anger can transform not only our hearts but also the way we extend grace to those around us.
