With My Kids

Nov 10, 2024    Tyler Gorsline

In the final sermon of the series "WITH", we're reminded of the profound importance of childlike faith and how it relates to our spiritual journey. The key scripture comes from Mark 10, where Jesus says, 'Let the little children come to me.' This isn't just about kids – it's about all of us embracing a childlike approach to faith. We're challenged to consider how our childhood experiences, especially trauma, can shape our perception of God and others. The message draws fascinating parallels between attachment theory and our spiritual lives, suggesting that our early relationships profoundly impact our ability to connect with God. As we reflect on this, we're encouraged to allow Jesus to heal our inner child, transforming our faith journey. This isn't just theory – it's an invitation to experience deeper belonging, becoming, and blessing in Christ, potentially changing how we relate to God, others, and even the children in our lives.
