The Covenant Family

It means that I can walk away whenever I want. No harm, no foul.

I don’t need to explain—it's my decision.

I don’t even need to have good reasons; it's just what I want to do.

And, even if I did have good reasons, I certainly don’t need to give them to you!

This is the epitome of contractual thinking about relationships. They are for me, and I reserve the right to abandon ship when they aren't meeting my needs.

Sadly, this line of thinking has slithered its way even into the Christian's head and heart—with our marriages, friendships, and even our membership in the church.

In this episode of We Make Christians, Peter, Pastor Nate, and Kyle talk about the biblical way of thinking about relationships: one of covenant, not contract.

Specifically, they talk about the new five-week Adult Christian Education class that Pastor Nate is co-teaching with Nadine Michalak: The Covenant Family.
