The environment we grew up in, our relationship with our parents and siblings how information is shared and conflict experienced. Family of Origin can manifest itself in a number of ways, some helpful, some funny and some unhelpful. Being aware of your family of Origin as well its impact on your current family situation is essential to building a healthy family system. It can be sorted out. Drawing on the teaching in Genesis 2 and Matthew 19 this message encourages the hearer to truly leave their original family, join (or cleave the KJV of the bible says) to their new family and unite together in becoming one. The next best step in creating a family that you love to be part of is to delight in your family and marriage. In short. Stay Amazed. Enjoy the journey towards a marriage that loves and lasts.
