FAMILY WORSHIP/DISCIPLESHIP

Ephesians 6:4 is the verse for the week.

“Fathers,  do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.”

All threw the Bible God makes it clear that it’s the mans responsibility to lead/shepherd or pastor his family. With statistics showing that 75%-85% of kids that grew up in church leave the faith after only one semester of college, then something must be missing. If their only getting a couple of hours a week at best of Bible teaching at church and very little if any at home it’s not the churches fault. Just like the first F in F3, if we only post once a week do we really expect to improve our fitness? So it is if with family worship, if we go at it aimlessly without intentionality there will be very little if any growth spiritually in our families.  Men  we will have to answer for how well we shepherd. This is our greatest calling, not how good our kids are at sports, how smart they are, or how popular they are. These things are not bad in and of themselves but if we place more emphasis on them than we do our own personal holiness and leading them to the Cross of Christ then we have failed them.God never commanded any of us to raise the next Kobe Bryant, Derek Jeter, or a super star athlete or scholar or to have their on hunting and fishing show. No, He commanded us to teach his word to our children DILIGENTLY! Deut. 6-6:7.

Men let’s fight for our families, because the devil sure is!

Men I pray for you all daily and thanks for letting me lead!
