Us: Us Starts With Me | Hein Bruyns

What comes out of you when life squeezes you?
In this message, Ps Hein Bruyns shares a powerful truth: healthy relationships start with personal healing. Too often we blame others, our past, or our pain for what spills out of us—but Jesus shows us that what’s inside our hearts eventually shapes every relationship around us.

In Us Starts With Me, Hein unpacks how blame blocks healing, why our relationships bear the fruit of what’s happening inside us, and how Jesus invites us into real restoration. This message is honest, practical, and full of hope for anyone wanting stronger marriages, friendships, family relationships, and inner wholeness.

If what’s broken in us can eventually break us, then what’s healed in us can eventually heal us.

In this episode:

• Why blame keeps us stuck
• How inner pain affects outer relationships
• What Jesus teaches about healing the heart
• Why healing starts with taking responsibility
• How to come to Jesus for real restoration

3 practical ways to pursue healing:

• Come to Jesus with authenticity
• Reveal your struggles in safe community
• Keep returning to His presence

Key Scriptures:
Luke 6:43–45
Matthew 7:1–6
Matthew 11:28–30
James 5:16
Psalm 145:18

This message will encourage you to stop fixing your eyes on everyone else, bring your heart honestly to Jesus, and let Him begin a work of healing that overflows into every part of your life.
