We often characterize families by the things that they do, or the activities they love. Some families focus their time and attention to sports; others on travel or vacation getaways. Still others devote much of their energy on work. What about your family?
What does God say about the family, and more specifically, the Gospel-Centered Family? Embrace God’s Word with us during Children’s Sunday as Greg Langley preaches from Ephesians 6:1-4 in the message, “The Gospel Centered Family.”
The Gospel-Centered Family – Ephesians 6:1-4
- For the Children – Ephesians 6:1-2 (Exodus 20:12)
- For the Parents – Ephesians 6:4 (Deuteronomy 6:4-9; Ephesians 5:22-28)

Ephesians 6:1-4 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 2 “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), 3 “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” 4 Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord. Hebrews 10:24-25 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
