What's the point of relationships?

Bit of a trick question, isn't it? Relationships ARE the point. Relationships are the purpose of human existence... and the universe itself springs out of the eternal relationship between the members of the Trinity.

We are created for intimacy with God. Following Jesus is not about behaviour but about intimacy. The closer we grow with Jesus, the more like him we become, and changed behaviour is a result of that relationship.

This sermon explores John 14 through the lens of relationships.

It was preached at Pakenham Lakeside Church on Sunday 14th May 2017.

Enjoy!
