(The Christian Post) Pastor Andy Stanley of Atlanta’s North Point Community Church reflected on his past struggles with a “broken” relationship with his father, famed evangelist Charles Stanley, and offered biblical advice for restoring fractured relationships.
In an Oct. 24 sermon series titled “Reassembly Required; A Beginners Guide to Repairing Broken Relationships,” Stanley revealed that nearly three decades ago, he felt “angry and hurt” every week, sitting with his father in an office at church receiving counseling sessions.
At that time, Stanley said he found it “strange” that he and his father were feeling “stuck,” trying to fix difficulties in their relationship. Both men, he said, had spent their entire careers as experts telling other people how to fix “broken” and “damaged” relationships.
