Relationship Basics

Dr. Rocky Ramsey unpacks the Biblical basics of building strong, God-honoring relationships. What does it take? It starts with our character—being agreeable, sympathetic, kind, and humble. We are called to serve others, to use our words for good, and to refuse to let the bad behavior of others dictate our own. Instead, we must be honest, pursue righteousness, and work for peace.

Why does this matter? Because God is for those who live rightly, and He stands against those who do wrong. Our relationships aren’t just about people—they’re about our obedience to God. When we treat others the way God commands, we experience His favor, His blessing, and the peace only He can give.

Are your relationships reflecting Christ? It’s time to align them with His Word!

To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing. For, “The one who desires life, to love and see good days, must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit. He must turn away from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it.”
— 1 Peter 3:8-11
