0:00 Family, we wanna welcome you to church today. Welcome to Patria. Family, can you help me give a warm welcome to all of our campuses that are watching right now from Pomona to0:11 online? We are 1 church, 1 family with multiple locations, and we are so excited that you are with us today. Well, family, like pastor Aaron said, we have been0:23 in an incredible message. And I am pastor Nathan. If we haven't had the opportunity to meet. And I'm excited to be with you this weekend. And we have been this summer over the series called0:35 questions for life, where you've asked the questions and we've come to you as a team under the leadership of pastor Adam to answer those questions according to the word of God. And today is no0:46 different because today is all about relationships, Femona, and online relationships, which affects all of us, whether it's friendships, whether it's marriage, whether it's family0:58 relationships, or dating. Take a listen to some of the questions that you've asked. Have question about adultery and divorce. Want to know how God1:10 sees that and how someone can overcome that.1:14 How do you keep your relationship with Christ founded in a relationship with a significant other.1:26 What do you do when you're married for 40 something years and your husband did surrender at 1 time, got baptized, but has an addiction1:38 with alcohol, and he's not ready to surrender again. And this has been going on for decades. And a woman becomes a widow, how long should she wait to remarry?1:50 How do you know that you're ready for marriage?1:53 How do you know when it's time to end that relationship or end that friendship with someone that you feel like you're outgrowing? And is2:05 it better to pray for the ending of that relationship or friendship? Or is it better to pray for that relationship or friendship to be saved?2:17 Come on, family. Those are some real questions. And we all may have been there before. I don't know if you've ever been there like me before where you've come home after a long day and you're tired and you reach2:29 for your keys and you try to go into the front door of your home and you put in the key and it's not budging. And you're thinking, what is going on? And so you wiggle it a little bit and you try a little bit harder but2:41 still nothing. So you pull your keys out in frustration and you look at your key ring again only to realize that you were using the wrong key to try to get in the door in the first2:52 place. You see, this can feel and look like a lot like relationships at times Where you feel like you're locked out of doors. Where we stand at the doors of3:04 dating or marriage or friendships. And we're jiggling the wrong keys and we're wondering why nothing opens. You see, you use the wrong key and the door stays shut. You try to3:16 force it, and what do you risk? Stripping the lock. And what does this do? This just causes pain and frustration. You see, dating may feel confusing. Marriage may feel distant.3:27 Friendships may even feel one-sided. Here's what I know is that we all want connection, Pomona. But perhaps no 1 has ever handed us the right set of keys to3:39 use or even showed us how to use them. And it's not that you're failing and it's certainly not that God has left you stranded on the porch at all. It's that most3:51 relationship problems are really key problems. You see family, from the very beginning, God designed all of us for connection. And with that, he wants us to4:02 have connection with him first and then with 1 another. Yet because every single 1 of us is a little jacked up, don't look at your neighbor, relationships can be a little4:14 complicated. You see, relationships bring a lot of joy in our life. But if we're honest, they could also bring a lot of pain. And many of us may feel like we're locked out of4:26 healthy love. Not because of a lack of effort, but because we're trying to pry open doors with keys that only God can unlock. You see, some of4:38 us in our life are trying to open up relationships with the key of appearance. You see, this key, I approach relationships if if I look the part, and if I dress the part, if I stay in4:50 shape, if I post that selfie on Instagram, then certainly someone will love me. Some of us go into relationships with the key of performance. Pomona, this is the key. If I go5:01 into a relationship successful enough, if I'm enough, if I get that degree, then perhaps someone will love me and I could find a friend. Some of us grab the key of5:13 possession to open up a relationship. Well, this is if I have the right house, and if I have the right job, and if I buy the right clothes, and I carry the right handbag, then5:24 certainly I can have friends or a wife or a husband 1 day in my life. Some of us grab the key of pleasure as we go into relationships. Well, this is5:36 the key just as it sounds. This is, well, if it feels good, if it if it's fun, if if I if I party enough, if I have sex with them, then surely5:48 I'll be able to get into a good relationship. But if we're honest, we've all been guilty of reaching for these keys before seeking Jesus first. But6:00 there is, however, 1 key that matters most in all of this, and we see this in scripture in Matthew 6 33. And so will you stand with me, family? Pomona, if you turn6:12 with me to Matthew 6 33, this is gonna be our passage for today. We stand because we wanna honor God. We stand because the word of God is living and breathing. We recognize that, and we wanna6:24 honor God because of that. So thank you for standing with us. It says in Matthew 6 33, a verse that many of us are familiar with. But seek first, say first. First. First the kingdom of6:36 God and his righteousness and all these things will be added unto you. You may be seated. Let's pray. Lord God, we thank you, father, for our time today, God. As we6:48 navigate the topic of relationships, God, I pray that you speak directly to where we are, God. I pray that we leave here, God, inspired to do better, not in our own doing, but according to your6:59 word, God. I ask you now, father, that I step out of the way so that the Holy Spirit may move. In your name, I pray. Amen. You see family, if we're gonna talk about7:11 healthy relationships, then we have to start with the key that matters most, and that is the key of priority. I'm not gonna overcomplicate this7:23 family. You see, healthy relationships start with the priority that Jesus is at the center. Pomona, it is not our desires. It is not our timeline. It is not7:35 what others think. Our priority must start with Jesus. As we just read, Matthew 6 33 says, seek what? Seek first the kingdom of God. Not7:46 second, not third, not after you meet someone, not after you get the guy or you get the girl. What is the kingdom? We seek first the kingdom. It's not just a place,7:58 but it's the reign of Jesus in every part of our life. If Jesus isn't first, then I'm gonna tell you today, every other part of the relationship will completely8:10 be out of alignment. Here's what I have found. The problem isn't that people don't want love or healthy relationships. It's that they want them more than8:22 God. The priorities are out of alignment. You see, I can still drive my car even when my tires aren't aligned. But guess what? I am still8:34 causing eternal damage to my car that I cannot see. And what Jesus is telling us through this passage is is if I'm not first, then nothing else will8:45 fit. If I'm not first, everything else will always feel like a fight. And what do most people do? They look for the 1, the guy, the girl,8:57 the group of friends before surrendering themselves to the only 1 who can satisfy. You see, we make people our emotional center. We build our9:09 worth on their attention. We seek completion in a person before Christ. Turn to someone and say priority. You see family, our first9:21 key is so vital because as we place Jesus first, everything else comes into alignment. I've been guilty of being out of alignment before in my life.9:33 About 6 years before I met my wife, Sanaz, I had just graduated college, Pomona. I had a great job, and I was closing on my first home. I was so proud of myself.9:45 And, you know, I felt accomplished and that I something to offer and it was ready to I was ready to put myself out there. And so I did what you gotta do. I started to go out on dates. I started hanging9:56 around new groups of people and meeting new friends. I mustered up the energy to ask the pretty girls out. And to my surprise, they said yes. And next thing you know,10:08 I was having dinner and I would be sitting across from them or having coffee. And halfway through the conversation, I'd be listening to them. But as I was listening to them, I was also thinking to myself,10:20 oh my gosh. You are weird. Like, you're pretty, but you're weird. And then I'd be hanging out with these group of friends, and I'd be thinking to myself, Nathan, what10:32 are you doing? This is not you. Why are you trying to be someone you're not? And I remember sharing this with 1 of my mentors at the time. And they said to me so boldly, Nathan, maybe10:44 they're not the problem. Maybe you're the problem. Maybe your priorities are off a little bit. And in that moment, I realized that I was looking for10:55 other people to fill a void in my life relationally that I should have been going to Jesus to fulfill first. You see, just because the pretty girl said yes, that was all I needed because I11:07 was such an insecure man during that time. And it was during this that I realized that God spoke to me so clearly. And he said, Nathan, if you desire to have a11:19 godly relationship in your life, whether it's friendship or romantic, then you're gonna have to learn to put me first. And so I had to go on a journey. And I'll keep it real with you. I had to put11:31 a pause on everything. I put a pause on dating. I put a pause on going out and having fun. I put a pause on everything that was distracting me from God, and I went on a journey of11:43 finding wholeness in Christ. God had to heal some insecurities in my life. God had to heal some emotional trauma. I would spend the next couple years with a lot11:55 of time with God. I would spend a lot of time in church. I would surround myself with godly friends, Pomona, and godly relationships as the Lord began to heal my heart, and I12:06 began to place him as number 1. You see, it was a process. It was a journey. It wasn't easy, but I recognized that it's what I had to do during this12:18 season. And a couple years later, I wish I could say it was months. I wish I could say it was years. But excuse me. Weeks. But a couple years later, Sanaz would come into my life12:30 through a new group of friends. But the difference now was that my priorities were in order. My priorities were in order and I had the right key in my hand. And the12:42 rest is history. You see, family, here's the takeaway that I learned during that season of my life, that God wanted all of12:54 me before he could ever entrust someone to me. I was praying for someone to come into my life, but I was not praying that Jesus would be number 1 in my life. And until13:05 I shifted, then God began to do a work in me and eventually brought the my wife into my life. And so what does priorities look like in healthy relationships? Today's message is13:17 all about the practical. And so if you're not taking notes, I encourage you to do so because we're gonna break it down as we navigate through these 3 keys. So what does priorities look like? When it comes13:29 to relationships, no matter if it's friendship, whether it's marriage, or whether it's dating, or the family, God doesn't want to be a part of your life. He wants to be the center of13:41 it. The expectation is not that we add God after in the relationship. God is not a Lowry seasoning to be put on top as a finisher. God is13:53 the main dish and he desires to be the center of our life. To design and build our relationships with intention and him at the middle. What does that14:05 mean? It means before I text them, I talk to him. Before I commit to them, I surrender to him. Before I say I do to them, I say yes to him.14:17 Jesus must be the priority. Secondly, don't ask God to bless something that he wasn't invited to build in the first place. We've got14:28 people, Pomona, begging God to fix a relationship that they never asked him to be a part of from the very beginning. You see, you want his provision, but you don't ask for14:40 his permission. You want his guidance, but you didn't seek his blueprint in the very beginning, which is the word of God. I encourage you, invite Jesus in from the beginning. Pray14:52 for wisdom when choosing friends. Date with purity and intention. Start your day if you are married by praying with your spouse. It doesn't have to be long. It could be all of 215:04 minutes, God. God bless our marriage. Bless our day. Amen. Just place God in the beginning. If you're married to an unbeliever, I encourage you,15:16 continue to pray for the salvation of your spouse. First Peter 3 says that your quiet witness and your steadfast love can preach greater than any15:28 sermon that they may ever hear. It's never too late to pick up the key of priority and place Jesus at the center of your relationship. If the15:39 first key is priority, putting Jesus first, then the second key is the key of protection. Turn to someone and say, protection. Because15:51 once your heart is aligned with God, then the enemy will do everything he can and in his power to attack it. You see, Proverbs 4 in verse16:03 23 says, above all else, guard. Say guard. Guard. Guard your heart for everything. Everything, Pomona and online, you do flows16:15 from it. This isn't just a good idea. This is God's priority for the emotional health within our relationships, family. You see, guarding our16:27 heart isn't about avoiding dating or avoiding making new friends. It's about pursuing holiness. You see, scripture here, if I could break it down, teaches16:39 us to guard our inner life. That's what it means when the word says guard your heart. Guard our thoughts, our desires, our values, our emotions because everything16:50 flows from it. What does this mean? It means keeping God the center. It means resisting sinful influences. It means taking responsibility for our17:02 mental and our spiritual and our emotional well-being. It means protecting our heart is a form of worship. Posture, and it is a daily17:13 act of surrender. You know, we say we want to follow God's will. I think we all would say that. But if we're not guarding our hearts, we're leaving the door17:25 wide open for anyone or anything. And let's be real. Some of us are more committed to protecting our iPhone passwords and our Instagram login than come17:37 when it comes to protecting our heart. What does this look like? We have state of the art security cameras in our homes. We have high-tech alarm systems that can see someone coming to17:49 our door 30 feet away. We have friends like Smith and Weston under our bed to help protect us. We spend more time and energy18:01 protecting what is temporary, our stuff, than guarding what is eternal that God has given to us. The only thing18:13 worse than a locked heart that won't love that won't let love in is a open heart with no boundaries. So how do we move to guarding our18:25 heart in a healthy relationship? I'm glad you asked. We do it by number 1, boundaries define your standards. Boundaries are not meant to be these18:37 moats outside of your life that no 1 can come in and enter. You see, doctor Henry Cloud puts it that good boundaries are not about building walls but about18:49 creating doorways. In other words, you're not shutting people out when you create boundaries. You're actually inviting the right ones into your life that push you19:00 closer to Christ. Scripture tells us very clearly in first Corinthians 15 verse 33, do not be deceived. Bad company ruins good19:12 morals. Who we surround ourselves with absolutely matter. So as you look at your relationships, you have to ask yourself very candidly, am I19:23 sacrificing conviction for connection? Do I feel peace or pressure when I'm with this person? Am I setting boundaries based on wisdom or19:35 fear of rejection? Let's break it down a little bit more. If you're here and you're dating, I wanna encourage you. Setting boundaries means you have to know your standards and keep them. Know19:47 the environments, conversations that trigger temptation in your relationship. Communicate your biblical negotiables early on and clearly in19:59 the relationship. I wanna encourage you. If you're dating, please stop playing house. If you are dating, you are actually still single, my friend. You are not20:11 married yet. Stop sharing locations. Stop sharing passwords. Stop sharing bank cards, and living together. I loved Sanaz with my whole heart when we20:23 were dating. But that girl was not getting my Wells Fargo card or vice versa in any way. All that does is it ruins boundaries and it invites hurt20:35 into the relationship. If you're married, guard your time for 1 another. Guard your tone. Guard your attention and what your attention pulls away from 120:47 another. Protect your intimacy and shut out comparison. Keep fidelity sacred. Make it intentional to go out on dates, to go on20:58 overnights, to go on vacations together. If something hurts, then say it to 1 another. Remember, this is your helpmate. Take a walk. Take a time out. It's your21:10 responsibilities to protect each other's heart. If you're in friendships today, stop ignoring the red flags just because you have history with someone.21:22 Boundaries do not mean that you are bitter. They mean that you have wisdom. Just because someone had a key to your heart in the past does not mean that they should21:34 still have access now and in the future if they are affecting your relationship with Jesus. And the second thing when it comes to protecting our heart is21:46 access must be earned. Let's be honest. Some of us are out here handing out keys to our heart like Oprah. 1 compliment, you get a key. 1 deep21:58 conversation, you get a key. 1 flirty DM or text, oh, you could take 5 keys. But here's the thing, family. God never intended our heart to be some22:09 prize at Chuck E. Cheese for people to grab and take advantage of. It is a true prize that God has given to us that just because someone22:21 knocks upon your heart doesn't mean that they belong inside. We see this in Proverbs 13 20. Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of22:33 fools will suffer harm. If a relationship is consistently pulling you away and distracting you from God's will, then you may have to look at it and22:45 say, it may be time for me to take a step back and walk away. But here's the thing. If you're married today, that is not a blank statement or permission for you to22:57 walk out of your marriage because it is hard or inconvenient. Hear my heart. Marriage is a covenant. It is not a contract that you can go and break like Verizon. It is appointed by God. You23:08 don't walk away because it's hard. It requires prayer and counsel and a fight for what God brought together. But23:20 still, be encouraged in every relationship. This truth remains. You do not owe everyone access to your heart. Access must be earned through consistency and through23:32 faithfulness and through godliness. You see, once you've aligned your heart with our priority in Christ, then we began to protect our heart, which is guarding our23:44 heart. We are now ready for the next, which is grabbing the key to a healthy relationship is the key of progress. Turn to someone and say progress. Progress.23:58 God has not called you and I into relationships to just stay the same. He has called us to grow. And here's what I know. A relationship that24:10 isn't growing isn't just standing still. It's actually fading from God's purpose. If you have your Bibles, turn with me to second Peter 1 in verse 8. And we're gonna24:22 break this down of what growth and progression looks like within our relationships. It says in verse 8, make every effort to add24:34 to your faith goodness, and to goodness knowledge, and to knowledge self control, and to self control perseverance, and to perseverance godliness, and to24:45 godliness mutual affection, and to mutual affection love. For if you possess these qualities and increasing measure, they will keep you from24:57 being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ. You see family, what Peter means here is that he doesn't just give us this feeling based25:09 model. He gives us a growth progression. Notice the pattern was faith is the foundation, but love is the goal. I want you to picture stairs going up.25:21 That is what we just read. Every other quality is a step toward Christ like maturity. Progress doesn't mean perfection. What progress means, it's25:33 moving in the right direction. But don't confuse all movements with growth. You see, just because you talk every day doesn't mean that you're building trust.25:45 Just because you've been together for 20 years doesn't mean that you're growing together in the right direction. Just because there's passion, that doesn't mean there's purpose in a relationship.25:57 You can still be unequally yoked with someone and still moving. Except you're not moving in a straight direction. What you're doing is is you're moving in circles.26:09 You're moving in cycles of confusion, patterns of pain. Because motion without alignment isn't progress. It's actually just exhaustion26:21 as you do it over and over. See, Tim Keller says, the author, you don't fall out of love. You fall out of repentance and growth. In other26:33 words, relationships don't fall apart because love has just disappeared all of a sudden. Relationships begin to deteriorate when we stop doing26:45 the work to grow. You see, you don't just drift into healthy relationships, family. It doesn't happen like that. You have to build on them with26:56 purpose and on purpose. You see, family, I have some balloons up here on the stage. And you see, these balloons represent a lot of what relationships look27:08 like today. You see, these balloons are fun and they're cute and they come in different colors and different shapes and they fly27:19 high on chemistry. They float on hanging out. They rise together in a cluster of balloons. But here's the thing about balloons is27:31 they're also delicate. And as quickly as the balloon goes up and rises is as quickly as it comes down. Here's what I know. If you've ever been to a party or you've ever been27:43 to an event, people love balloons because balloons give attention. But the thing about balloons is they're also empty on the inside. You see, a27:55 balloon like relationship means 1 disagreement, it's over. 1 missed connection or miscommunication, it's done. 1 ghosted message and28:07 As quickly as it started, it ended. It's gone. It disappeared. They don't last. But see, the difference here is this28:19 brick represents a faith filled relationship. You see, this brick, it doesn't float. It's not flashy. It doesn't flex for your28:30 enjoyment. This brick was made with the intention for you to build upon it, Pomona. It was made with the intention for it to28:41 last for years and years and years to come. Jesus says in Matthew 7 that the wise man builds upon what? A rock.28:53 So why would it be any different when it comes to relationships? Why are we settling for these flaky, balloon like relationships when God is calling us to29:05 build upon something greater, which is himself? And here's the thing, family. When Jesus is the foundation, it doesn't just stop there.29:17 You grow. And the way you grow is when you lay trust in the relationship. And this is done with honesty and not assumptions. And then when trust is built, you can move29:29 and you could build respect in the relationship. This is through consistency and not convenience. Then from there, you can move into vulnerability, Pomona and online, in the29:41 relationship. And this is built when you choose courage over comfort. And from there, you can build upon communication in the relationship. This is when29:53 you listen more than you speak. And when you've laid communication, you then can move into forgiveness in the relationship. And forgiveness is built when grace30:05 outweighs our pride in the relationship. And after that, we can move into purpose in the relationship. This is when we pursue Christ together.30:17 Brick by brick, step by step, intention by intention. And over time, well, over time what you have built in this relationship has30:29 turned into something that God can dwell in. That this relationship has moved from more than just a connection, but it has turned into a reflection of who30:40 Jesus Christ is as we move into healthy relationships within our life. Turn to someone and say, it's time to progress. It's time progress. It absolutely30:52 is. So how do you know, family, if your relationship is growing? I want you to take a look at these 3 questions to reflect on. Number 1,31:04 spiritually, is Jesus at the center of this relationship, or has he become an afterthought? Are we praying together for each other more than we did31:15 6 months ago? When life gets hard, are we pointing each other back to Jesus, Are we just venting and coping? We have to ask ourselves relational questions.31:27 Are we growing in connection or just going through the motions? Are we communicating more honestly and with empathy and grace or act or are we actually taking31:39 steps back? Are we becoming safer spaces for 1 another or more distant and defensive? And lastly, we have to ask ourselves purposeful questions. Are31:51 we building with intention or are we drifting by default? Are we moving toward kingdom purpose, Pomona, or just checking off spiritual boxes?32:03 If past betrayal or divorce has taken in our lives and it has scarred me, am I open to healing with time and godly boundaries that lead to a32:15 healthy love again? That is how you know if you are growing in a relationship or ready to grow more in Christ. You see, family, today,32:27 we've held out held up 3 keys as we took a look at healthy relationships. We took a look at the key of priority, which is placing Jesus first. We held up the key of32:38 protection, which is learning to guard our heart. And lastly, we held up the key of progress, which is growth toward Jesus together in our relationships.32:50 But you may be here today, and you feel as deflated as that balloon that I popped. You feel like you have been trying to enter into relationships with the wrong key, and you've33:02 discovered that it is 1 failed relationship after another. If that is you here today, I want to encourage you and remind you that Jesus is still33:14 the master locksmith in all of this. And he can forge new keys in your life today. The same savior who rolled away the stone can33:26 realign your heart today. The same spirit who raised him from the dead can bring life into your dry marriage and friendships and families today. But you have33:38 to in first invite him in. You have to trust his timing family. You have to be willing to exchange those wrong keys for the right ones33:49 today. And when you put those keys into his hands, I want you to watch him unlock peace and purpose and a new beginning in34:01 your relationships today. Let's pray. God, we are just so grateful for who you are. We thank you, father, for the greatest relationship of all is that's34:13 Jesus who came to die on the cross so that we may have a relationship with him. Jesus, we're so grateful for your example that34:25 here on this earth, God, that we can have healthy relationships today. We don't have to accept what's happened in the past. We don't have to accept what society says is the norm.34:37 We can have biblical, godly, healthy relationships that pursue you, God. So no matter where we are today, God, no matter what broken keys someone may be34:49 holding, God, no matter the wrong keys, God, we leave them at your feet today, God. And we invite you in, God, to be number 1 as you become God, the blueprint to35:01 what relationships look like, God. We don't wanna do any relationship outside of you being the center God. Be with us in your name. Amen.35:12 Family, can we give Jesus a hand clap today? You know, if you're still here and you're watching us online, it's really the most35:24 important part of the service, whether you're in person, outside in the courtyard, or tuning in. You know, today we talked about healthy relationships. We talked about Jesus being35:36 the center of it all. But you might be here today, and you've never had the opportunity to accept Jesus into your heart as your personal Lord and savior. And if that's you, then I wanna invite you to35:48 say a prayer tonight. And it's not the prayer that saves you, but it's the positioning and the belief in your heart to come to God and say, God, I'm tired of doing this on my own. I'm35:59 tired, God, of dating, God, over and over the wrong people. I'm tired of these broken friendships. I'm tired of struggling in my marriage, God, and I want to place you first.36:13 I wanna have a relationship with you first, God, so that the rest of my relationships can be blessed. And if that's you here tonight or you watching online, then I'm gonna invite you to say a prayer with36:25 me. No matter what doors you may have forced yourself into, God can redeem today.
