How did your family shape you? Take These Ashes
-
- Christianity
The truth of the matter is, how you were raised affects you.
It shapes the way you see relationships, yourself, and the world. It affects how you manage conflict, what kinds of relationships you gravitate towards or reject, how you make decisions, your self-worth and self-image, even your approach to faith. So, in this episode I'll share a list of personal reflection questions for you to think about how your family shaped you, offer an invitation for a way to share your story, and give you a prayer to accompany this brave and deep work of looking back.
A LIST: 5 categories of questions for personal reflection:
Parents (3:34) Siblings (5:01) Conflict (5:48) Celebrations (7:11) Education, money, work (8:15) AN INVITATION to share your own story (13:43)
Send a story about a profound moment or memory in your family to taketheseashes@gmail.com A PRAYER of encouragement for you in your healing (15:56)
A line to hold you this week: "When we question our belovedness or belonging because of the past, may we rest in our status as beloved by you, held by you, known by you."
