”The Adam Project”: An Exploration of Family and Healing

We all know the importance of family and the impact it can have on our lives. But how often do we pause to consider the impact of our own actions on our families? Get ready for a heartwarming and insightful journey as Pastors Brent, Jerry, and Chris McQuay discuss the intricate dynamics of family, ministry, and the paramount importance of prioritizing family in this episode of Between Sermons.

Kickstarting our annual 'At the Movies' sermon series, the trio dissects the compelling narrative of the movie 'The Adam Project.' A film that beautifully intertwines humor with emotion, it explores weighty themes like relational issues, abandonment, and the long-lasting impact of past traumas.

Taking cues from the movie's main character, Adam, who misremembers a painful past event due to trauma, the conversation shifts towards the biblical figure of King David. Despite his flawed relationships, David exemplifies the healing power of self-forgiveness, reminding us that if God can forgive us, we too must extend that grace to ourselves.

Regret - a universal human experience, is discussed with sensitivity and wisdom. The McQuays discuss how acknowledging one's wrongs, confessing to God, making amends, and most importantly, granting oneself grace can guide us towards healing. They draw parallels to a poignant moment in 'The Adam Project,' where the main character grapples with past regrets.

The McQuays, having witnessed the transformative power of faith firsthand in their ministry, now use their experiences to guide others towards healing and forgiveness. Their example of grace and forgiveness serves as a beacon for all those striving to keep family first.

Using the film as a launchpad, the McQuays share a soul-stirring sermon about relationships and healing from past wounds. They lay out seven key takeaways from the movie, with 'being present' standing out.
