Marriage That Pictures Christ

Ephesians 5:25
Husbands — love your wives

As Christ loved the church — sacrificially, sanctifyingly, unconditionally.

Ephesians 5:33
Wives — reverence your husbands

Not because he's earned it, but because God calls it good and holy.

1 Peter 3:7
Dwell with understanding

Honor her as the weaker vessel — cherished, protected, listened to.

Ephesians 4:26
Let not the sun go down

Deal with wrath the same day. Do not give place to the devil in your bedroom.

Proverbs 5:18
Rejoice in the wife of thy youth

The joy of marriage renews when you keep pursuing the one you already have.

Ephesians 5:32
Marriage pictures Christ & the Church

Your marriage is preaching a sermon. What Gospel does it declare?

Parenting by the Book

Raising Children for Christ

Deut 6:6–7
Talk of the Word when you sit, walk, lie down, rise up. Discipleship is a life, not a lecture.
Prov 22:6
Train up a child in the way he should go. Training takes repetition; teaching takes only telling.
Eph 6:4
Fathers: don't provoke — nurture. Provocation crushes; nurture cultivates.
Prov 13:24
Loving discipline is not the opposite of love; it is love.
Ps 127:3
Children are a heritage of the Lord — a stewardship, not a burden.
