This is Senior Recognition Sunday at our church.  Our Seniors will be in both services.  Tony will preach at the C&C service so that he can speak directly to our graduating seniors.  I'll have the opportunity to speak to them at their banquet which follows the church service.  I'll be preaching in the traditional service, starting the series originally scheduled for this month on Living and Loving in 21st Century Relationships.  I'll be talking about "Living Together in Today's World," using the text from Genesis 2:18, 21-25 and Luke 8:19-20.  As you read over these texts and think about Sunday, you might consider the following questions:

1. How has the institution of the family changed in the past twenty years, and what challenges do those changes bring to us as Christians?
2. What does the Bible say about the family and about God's people living together?  How does the Scripture provide healthy instructions about family relationships?
3. What do the passages above tell us about living together and how might we use those instructions in our own families?

Hope to see you in church on Sunday!
