Relationships can be messy. One minute, everything’s great, and the next, you’re wondering if you need a relationship coach. Culture’s definition of love, dating, and friendship constantly shifts, making it easy to be caught in confusion. But God’s Word is a foundation that never changes.
That’s why we put together RelationTIPS—a collection of talks designed to bring biblical clarity to the relationships that shape our lives. Whether you’re single, dating, married, or navigating friendships and family dynamics, these messages are packed with practical wisdom to help your church build relationships that are healthy, whole, and God-honoring.
Included in this resource package, you’ll find sermon notes, links to the sermons on YouTube, discussion questions, creative assets, and more. Everything you need to implement this collection in your own church community.
Built Different - Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr.
Strong relationships start with understanding, not trying to change each other. In a world that blurs the lines of identity, God brings clarity. He created men and women uniquely, with strengths that complement each other. Instead of competing, we are called to collaborate. Healthy relationships don’t happen by accident; they happen by design. When we embrace God’s blueprint, we build relationships that reflect His purpose and stand the test of time.
Rules of Attraction - Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr.
Dating in today’s world can feel overwhelming, but God’s wisdom provides clarity in the chaos. Love isn’t just about chemistry; it’s about commitment, character, and compatibility. Instead of chasing fleeting emotions, we’re called to choose wisely—seeking relationships that reflect God’s purpose and align with His plan. In this message, we explore biblical principles for dating, making decisions that honor God, to build foundations that last.
The Naked Truth – Pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr.
Sex is one of the most powerful gifts God has given, yet it’s also most distorted by the enemy. God designed sex with purpose—for intimacy, commitment, and covenant. When taken outside of His plan, it leads to shame, confusion, and brokenness. In this message, we confront the lies the world tells about sex and uncover the truth that sets us free. No matter our past mistakes, God is a Redeemer, offering grace, restoration, and a new beginning.
Singleness is a Piece of Cake – Pastor Manouchka Charles
Whether single, dating, or married, we are all called to steward our seasons well. Singleness isn’t a problem to be solved; it’s a season to be embraced. In this message, we explore how to build a foundation for love by developing faith, character, and purpose. We’re reminded that waiting isn’t wasted when it’s done God’s way. And when it comes to relationships, we don’t settle—we elevate our standards. God is a matchmaker, and He’s preparing Kingdom marriages. But above all, we fix our eyes on the greatest marriage of all—the one between Christ and His bride.
A Love That Kills – Pastor Rich and DawnCheré Wilkerson
Not all love stories have happy endings, and some relationships don’t just break hearts—they break destinies. This message dives into the cautionary tale of Ahab and Jezebel, a relationship built on passivity, control, and spiritual compromise. We uncover three key warnings that can make or break any relationship: the danger of passivity, the destruction of manipulation, and the ultimate consequence of a toxic relationship. But the good news? Our stories don’t have to end in disaster. Through Jesus, love is redeemed, relationships are restored, and past mistakes don’t have to define our future. Whether single, dating, or married, this is a call to build relationships that honor God, where love isn’t about control, but about sacrifice.
