The Christian Home

The Christian Home — Sermon Series

What does God’s Word actually teach about the Christian home in a confused cultural moment?

In this three-part sermon series, The Christian Home, we examine God’s design for the household by focusing on the distinct roles of each member of the family. Drawing primarily from Colossians 3:18–21, this series explores the responsibilities and callings of wives, husbands, and children within a home shaped by the gospel.

A central conviction running through this series is this: healthy churches require healthy homes. Scripture consistently shows that the spiritual health of the church is inseparably connected to the spiritual health of the household. When homes are disordered, churches are weakened; when homes are shaped by God’s design, churches are strengthened and their witness to the world is clarified.

Rather than allowing contemporary cultural narratives or outdated stereotypes to define manhood, womanhood, marriage, or family, this series seeks to recover a biblical vision of the home—one ordered by Scripture, grounded in God’s wisdom, and aimed at training believers in godliness.

Because Scripture does not address roles in isolation, we also step back to ask foundational questions:

• What is a woman, according to the Bible?

• What is a man, according to God’s design?

• How do these realities shape marriage, parenting, and the health of the church?

This series presents the Christian home not merely as a social arrangement, but as a primary training ground for discipleship, where gospel virtues are lived out daily, passed on to the next generation, and ultimately serve the flourishing of the church.

Sermons in this series include:

• A Christian Wife’s Manifesto — God’s design for submission, dignity, and gospel witness

• The Loving Leader — The husband’s calling to sacrificial love and faithful leadership

• Obedience and Gentleness — God’s purpose for children within the Christian home

Together, these messages call the church to reclaim God’s good and wise design for the home—for the health of families, the strength of the church, and the clarity of its witness to the world.
