Synopsis

A look at relationships the way God intended them to be.

No one is better at relationships than God. His very being—as one God in three persons—is relationship. And he created us so that we could be in relationship with him and with each other.

From the moment we're born, relationships shape who we are and how we engage with the world around us. Beginning with how we see ourselves, we develop a view of God and others that impacts the way we relate to our parents, navigate friendships, dating relationships and marriage.

In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Louie Giglio explores—from a pastoral and biblical perspective—the fundamental question of what makes us relatable to others. He shows how God can:

• Change our perspective on relationships.
• Give us greater purpose in dating and marriage.
• Bring us peace in the midst of relational conflict.
• Help us restore relationships that seem broken beyond repair.

 

Because God has gone to extraordinary lengths to relate to us, we have the potential to build incredible relationships with one another. Embracing God's love and receiving His grace changes the way we relate to him, our family, our friends, and ourselves.

The Relat(able) Study Guide includes video discussion questions, Bible exploration, and personal study and reflection materials for in between sessions.

1. The Shovel and the Spoon
2. The Man/Woman in the Mirror
3. A God to Call Father
