This four-week, Family Values, series looks at biblical principles that build a strong family and a loving, Christ-centered home. Family life is filled with joyous wins and troubling struggles. Finding stability, safety, and community in Christ allows us to persevere through whatever comes with an enduring hope for ourselves and our familes.
The ability to conform outwardly to religious culture does not equate to a changed heart. Our confidence must come only from the Spirit's indwelling in us and our righteousness through Christ. No one is perfect, but we press on in the journey because of Christ. A Christ-centered family is more concerned with its members' hearst than with pretending to be perfect or ruling with an iron fist.
