OUR MISSION IS TO BE A CHRIST CENTERED FAMILY OF GOD FOCUSED ON TOUCHING LIVES AND REACHING OTHERS

The Family Discovery Series

 

One of my favorite channels, besides whatever baseball game might be on, is The Discovery Channel.  Not only can you learn something about the world around us, but their programming includes some of the most interesting and yet thrilling offerings on television today.  Whether you are watching someone profiling America’s dirtiest jobs, a team of people risking their lives to climb Mt. Everest, those who track deadly tornados, or one man surviving some of the most devastating conditions in the wild, you will always discover something fascinating about our world.

I think it is clear that life for today’s families is one of the greatest adventures ever.  It is an adventure that leads Christian parents and their children against the tide of popular culture, and society’s expectations.  Parents may easily find themselves overwhelmed by the temptation to put strong moral standards on the shelf along with other seemingly outdated relics of the past.  Spouses see what is happening to half of all marriages today, and find it easier than ever to walk away from a life-long commitment.  And our children live in a world that is more dangerous than ever.

However, I do believe that one of the key elements of a vibrant relationship with Christ is that daily we are discovering more and more about what it is that He wants to do with our lives, and how He wants to shape our lives.  I believe that the answer for parents and families who find themselves confronted with today’s challenges is to discover together God’s unique plan for their lives.  Discover what it means to completely trust God with your own life, and the lives of your children.  There is no more thrilling adventure than that.  Over the next seven Sundays we’ll discover together the rich blessing God desires for our families.
