The most incredible aspect of Creation was that God walked in the garden with the crown of His creation. They had a relationship with God that sin severed, ending a fellowship we can only imagine. For centuries, that relationship became one of distance and of fearful respect until Jesus came to walk, talk and relate with man. He came to live in relationship with mankind.
He didn’t just die on the cross to offer salvation. He invites His beloved creation back into an intimate relationship with Himself and to genuine fellowship with each other. That is why the secret to effective ministry that has long term results can be summed up in one word: relationships.
All that has changed in recent years is our means of relating to each other. At one time, we walked to each others’ homes, rode horses, drove cars, and used rotary phones. Now, we text and use electronic social networks on devices that can span the globe in seconds. Who knows what might be next! What matters most, though, will never change! It is relationships.
God created us for relationship and it is through relationships that the most genuine and effective ministry is done. Are you ready to increase the relational impact of your children’s ministry?
