Restoring Broken Relationships the Way God Calls Us To
Manage episode 502472353 series 3668382
In this powerful message from Pastor Justin Larkin at Northeast Christian Church, we learn that biblical conflict resolution isn’t about proving a point or forcing change—it’s about restoration. Drawing from Galatians 6:1-6, Pastor Justin shares why our goal should be to mend relationships with grace, truth, and gentleness, not to destroy them in frustration (aka “cat mode”). Through the vivid example of Japanese Kintsugi pottery, we see how God can take broken relationships and make them even more beautiful than before. Learn how to confront conflict with a Christ-like heart, and why restoration—though not always possible—should always be our aim. Let these truths guide your heart as you follow Jesus daily: ✅ In conflict, ask: “How can I honor and glorify God in this situation?”
✅ Restoration must be the goal—repair, don’t discard, broken relationships.
✅ Like Kintsugi, let the “cracks” in relationships be filled with grace, not hidden.
✅ Restoration takes patience, precision, and a loving heart—it cannot be rushed.
✅ Relationships restored in love reflect God’s beauty, character, and grace. If this message spoke to you, be sure to: 👉 Follow us on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/northeastchurch/ 👉 Visit our website at mynecchurch.com👉 Subscribe to our YouTube channel @northeastchristianchurch8431
