Getting Past Your Past | Anna Sadler

Very few of us want to revisit the past. But the reality is our past influences our present. Who we are has been shaped by where we come from. For most of us, our family of origin is the most significant influence on our life, for good or evil.  And no matter how healthy your family and childhood experience were, every family is dysfunctional at some level. We all inherit ways of living from our family of origin and culture that are out of sync with the way of Jesus. So an essential task in our apprenticeship with Jesus is re-learning how to be human in our relationship with the Father. But first, we have to go back to go forward.
