several years ago, I called my brother.  it was 7am.  for him, it was 11pm.  we were on opposite sides of the globe, sharing his car ride from central indiana to cincinnati children's hospital.  his daughter, maylin, was airlifted with his wife Maggie.  Maylin was struggling with serious, life-threatening medical problems.  this event was the first of a life altering shift in their family.  over the next weeks and months, they would encounter levels of grief previously unknown to them.  this past sunday, i interviewed my brother as a part of our nextdoor teaching series.  you can watch that interview here:

in this introduction to a new series, pastor nathan has identified 'intervention' as the key focus and the next big step for our church.  intervention is the loving interruption of a relationship in our bad habits, ideas or problems.  if you haven't heard the sermon, check it out here!

pastors shawn and nathan sat down to discuss the role of intervention in healthy friendships.  give it a listen and take some time to think through the small group questions!
