Understanding about Family
1. Definition of Family
Family is a covenant community of loyalty and love growing together (** put this on the screen when I am discussing biblical definition)
2. Purpose of Family
Deut. 6:5-9 says, Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts.7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.8 Tie them as symbols on your hands and bind them on your foreheads.9 Write them on the door frames of your houses and on your gates.
3. Direction of Family
Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
4. Operation of Family
Love & Discipline
5. Prayer for Family
