Battle of the Sexes
image by bryantarchway.com Gender differences have been touted as the ultimate relationship challenge and the source of constant frustration among people in relationships. Many people have settled for stereotypes and thus ended up branding men as ‘this’ or women as ‘that’. But are our differences a bad thing or a unique feature meant to help us learn how to serve each other? Are they hindrances or should they motivate us to be a blessing to one another? They present needs that people we are in relationship with have, but which we are naturally unaware of. How do we grow in understanding so we grow healthy relationships between single men and women. READ Psalms 139:13-14 The Bible affirms our differences. It says they are intentional from how God made us. God created our gender, and gave it to us as a gift for life. Whether we are men or women, we are a wonderful piece of God’s work. Our next text introduces us to WHAT we are to DO with our gift of gender. Galatians 5:13-15
