Our message today is about how to have a happy, healthy family. Everyone wants a happy, healthy family. Have you ever known anyone who has said, boy I hope I have a miserable family? Nobody wants a miserable family! Yet, many people have miserable families! Here is what I don’t understand…”why”. Why would you continue to have a miserable family when you don’t have to have one? You see…miserable families are fixable! You can change a miserable family and you can change a miserable marriage! That is why today’s message is so important! This message is for you…if you have a family, you have ever been part of a family, want to have a family, if you are going to have a family, or if you have a few areas in your family that needs a tune up.

This morning, as we conclude the series ALL IN. I want to challenge you and remind you that we are people who are on a MISSION from God! We are on MISSION! In fact, this morning, I want to encourage you to FINISH THE MISSION! What is the mission? Why is it important? And HOW do we finish the mission?

Perhaps you have seen the movie Jaws. About the shark that attacks people and boats. In that movie…there is a scene where captain of the ship begins to brag about the scars he has. Then, one of the other men…on the boat, begins to brag about his scars. How he was attacked by an eel and shark. These men…have stories to tell because of the things they have been through. They were living life…not just trying to die safely! What scars do you have? Do you know what scars are? They are invitations to tell a story! Scars tell us that something happened! Probably something painful! The scars I have…came with pain! Scars also tell us that healing has taken place! Did you know if the sore spot hasn’t healed…you don’t have a scar! You are still in the healing process!
