Soul Detox: Unhealthy People

The first topic preached on as part of our Lenten series, Soul Detox, was covered in two short sermons.  Take a look at the snapshots below.  

Sermon 1 Snapshot:

The first sermon in the Lenten series, Soul Detox: Clean Living in a Contaminated World, is really two sermons.  Sermon 1, “Radioactive Relationships: Dealing with Unhealthy People,” discusses the Christian response to unhealthy people.  Though it might seem, after thinking of ways toxic people can influence and harm our lives, that we should avoid, ignore, or run from them, that, in most cases, would not be the appropriate Christian response.  The first sermon used an excerpt of Scripture from Matthew 9.  

  

Sermon 2 Snapshot: 

Sermon 2, “Radioactive Relationships: Loving Unhealthy People Without Getting Sick,” provides applicable and practical ways that we can remain healthy, and perhaps even grow more healthy, while also loving those people who are unhealthy and living toxic lives.  Being in relationship with a toxic person/people can be risky, so we always must use caution.  Using caution, though, does not usually mean terminating a relationship altogether.
