28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my
yoke is easy and my burden is light.”Matthew 11:28-30

Principles of Christian Relationships
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a
] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b
] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”Matthew 22:36-40
44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.Matthew 5:44-48

To love and to serve each other…
Before we are husbands and wives, we are brothers and sisters
in the Lord.

Be in fellowship with other Christian
families.
Let us, as a community of Christian family support one
another as we all journey towards God.

Exercise greater control over the
family’s use of media.
Let us disconnect from multi-media and REALLY connect with
one another in the family.

Become pastors of our children
20 In the future, when your son asks you, “What is the meaning of the stipulations, decrees and laws
the LORD our God has commanded you?”21 tell him: “We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, but the LORD brought us
out of Egypt with a mighty hand. 22 Before our eyes the LORD sent signs and wonders—great and terrible—on
Egypt and Pharaoh and his whole household. 23 But he brought us out from there to bring us in and give us the
land he promised on oath to our ancestors. 24 The LORD commanded us to obey all these decrees and to fear the LORD our God, so that we might
always prosper and be kept alive, as is the case today. 25 And if we are careful to obey all this law before the LORD our God, as he has commanded us, that will be
our righteousness.”
Deutronomy 6:20-25
