Abstrakt

The church is called by God to be the household of faith. By professing faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and through the public ritual of baptism, believers become citizens of God's rule and disciples of Christ with all the faithful. From this understanding issues a corollary supposition that relationships are to be loving, forgiving, respectful, and non-manipulative, embodying Jesus' example. The ministry challenge addressed in this thesis project is a congregation composed of closed, enmeshed, manipulative family and friend relationships resistant to the admission of newcomers. To become aware of their behavioral patterns and to recover from this unhealthy situation, the church is challenged to develop small groups alongside existing groups as models of healthy relationships.
