Your first impression of God was formed by your father.

That’s a heavy statement packed with loads of feelings and questions. And your relationship with your dad deserves unpacking.

Let’s talk through this together. Listen in as Josh and Kit discuss how your relationship with your father impacts both your relationships with the men in your life and your relationship with God. 

Facing the good as well as the bad of this fundamental relationship is an essential piece of your “becoming whole.”

Highlights:

Kids are like wet cement. And what we experience begins to be formed or begins to be a forming agent for the cement and as we grow up it dries and hardens.

Our earthly dads are created by God to give us our first sense of what it really means to relate with God.

I was looking and thinking well if that’s what it means to be a man then I don’t want to be that I don’t want to do that

Questions:

What did you NEED to hear from your Dad?

What similarities do you see between your impression of God and your connection to your dad?

One of my favorite ways that Jesus shows us the heart of our Heavenly Father is in the story of Lazarus. Jesus is crying for the loss of his friend Lazarus, for the grief around him. And as he is walking towards the tomb, to call Lazarus out from the dead; he stops and says, “Father I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here…”  Jesus takes the time to show us the heart of our Heavenly Father. What does this small scene tell you about God?
