Summary
“What do you do when the people you love most don't share the values that have become central to your life? Following Jesus doesn't just change our Sunday mornings—it can change our priorities, commitments and the way we make decisions. And sometimes, that creates tension. There’s a family birthday, a weekly dinner or a special gathering, but there’s also a church commitment or Kingdom responsibility that you believe is important. So what do we do when faith and family collide? How do we honour and love our families without compromising our devotion to Christ? When should family take priority, and when should our Kingdom commitments? And how do we navigate these situations without becoming judgmental, legalistic or insensitive to the people we love? The answer isn't simply, ‘Church comes first,’ or ‘Family always comes first.’ We are called to love, honour, serve and remain faithful to Christ—and sometimes those commitments can pull us in different directions. So today, we're having an honest conversation about When Faith & Family Collide—and how we can navigate those difficult moments with wisdom, grace and a heart that remains faithful to Christ.”
