Subject: A Rampant Relationship Killer

Dear Families,


During the month of February, thoughts often turn toward love and relationships. With Valentine’s Day on February 14, stores stock their shelves with gifts they promise will be perfect for your loved ones. Everyone, it seems, has tips and suggestions for strengthening your marriage and family ties.


In this Message of the Month, Jim Schettler addresses a rampant relationship killer: bitterness. Countless relationships are damaged as a result of unresolved offenses. Parents and children are driven apart because of bitterness. Marriage harmony is diminished because one or both spouses are nursing a grudge. Close friendships and business relationships are severed because people are unwilling to forgive.

Jim Schettler takes listeners on an intriguing journey to discover how bitterness poisoned a nation, fueled a rebellion, and fatally damaged the nation's leadership. Along the way, you will discover the cause, cure, and consequences of bitterness. You will also uncover clues that answer the question, "Who was Ahithophel?"


The message ends with a surprising revelation! Your entire family will be fully engaged with Jim Schettler's energetic presentation along with the message from God's Word about the destruction bitterness brings. May "Powerful Lessons from the Life of Ahithophel" encourage you and your family to strengthen your relationships by guarding your hearts with all diligence!

In Christ,
