Restoring Relationships: Empower Kids to Want to Reconcile & Heal

17 Jul 2023 · 41 min · Episode 140

Have you wondered if there is anything you can do to be proactive about the inevitable conflicts in your home? Many parents just want the fighting to stop, but what if you focused instead on restoring relationships? Jesus completed the ultimate restoration through the cross, and as you value this wonderful restoration, you can begin to bring peace and joy to your family.

In today’s podcast, Jim and Lynne Jackson (Connected Families Co-Founders) join Stacy Bellward (podcast host) for a conversation about building the value of restoration in your family. Jim and Lynne are passionate about this topic and use scripture and their own experiences to offer a hope-filled picture of reconciliation for families.

In this podcast you’ll discover:

how to develop a mindset of reconciliation that is rooted in Jesus Christ

the importance of modeling restoration in your own relationships

practical ideas you can use in the midst of conflict to show Christ’s gentleness and compassion

why joy is the key difference between solving problems and restoration

ways you can proactively prepare for restoring relationships in the future
