Introduction: Family is a loaded word. For some it invokes warmth and security but for others in offers
up drama and dysfunction. However, God has created us to be in a family. We are born into a family
and we spend our lives looking for a family.
I’ve heard it said, you have two types of families, the one you are born into and the one you choose.
The church is to be that family….its a bit different because you are chosen by God to be a part and you
decide to connect.
One of the most compelling reasons we came to this church was the feeling of family. We had history
with Bard and Skip, a long history with Victoria, mostly we were coming out of a season of hurt and
betrayal that caused us to long for the safety of a spiritual family. We needed Fellowship of the
Crossroads and hopefully we have made a difference as a part of this family.
God started the church to be a family!
