How do you build a good relationship?

In a TED Talk Harvard from 2015 researcher Robert Waldinger made the bold statement that “Good relationships keep us happier and healthier.” Waldinger based his remark on data collected over 75 years as part of the Harvard Study of Adult Development. Waldinger’s research found that “The people who were the most satisfied in their relationships at age 50 were the healthiest at age 80” which led him to conclude that “The good life is built with good relationships.”

The question is, how do you build a good relationship? And how do you take a relationship that is broken and make it good again?

This weekend as we continue our series “Reconciled” we are going to look at three choices that you can make everyday to build good relationships. Even more importantly, these three choices can take a relationship that is broken and make it good again. I hope you’ll join us this weekend as we look at the story of Joseph that is told in Genesis 37 to 50 and discover the three choices that will reconcile a broken relationship and help you build good relationships every day.

See you Sunday,

Pastor Kirk
