Y11 – Three Kinds of Relationships, One Kind of Love
by
Dr. Karen Fischer
youth presentation
Your best friend knows everything about you. Your parents seem like they’re from another planet. And strangers? Well… they’re just there. But what if Christ could shine through you in all those relationships—not just the easy ones? This session explores how being Christ’s ambassador affects how you treat your inner circle, your family, and even people you barely know. Learn how to bring love, respect, and truth into every connection—whether you’re hanging out, disagreeing with your parents, or just checking out at Target.
