How we view the family relationship is one of the places that Christianity shines the brightest and yet, also runs most counter to our culture. We live in a \u201cWhat can I get out of it?\u201d culture. We live in a \u201cHow am I going to benefit?\u201d culture. People believe \u201cIt\u2019s all for me! It\u2019s all centered in me! It\u2019s all about me!\u201d But for Christians, our lives are lived for others...centered-in and all-about others! And so in the Christian family, we\u2019re not looking for a spouse that \u201ccompletes\u201d us, we\u2019re looking for a spouse that I can pour myself into and love and serve in Jesus\u2019 name for life. Having kids is not about having a bunch of \u201cmini-me-robots\u201d running around, but if God give us children He also gives us an opportunity to love, serve and nurture them into being loving, serving and nurturing adults. Counter Culture? Absolutely! God\u2019s will? Also absolutely. Today we\u2019ll consider what a true Kingdom Family looks like.
