Session Titles
1. Men: Leading the Home - Male leadership has been and continues to be assaulted by the culture. The recent television show ‘Shiny Happy People,’ is just the most recent barrage against male headship in the home. Indeed, men have sinned against God and their families, but that doesn’t remove God’s mandate for men to lead their homes. Is this really God’s mandate? How can men spiritually lead their homes if God has commanded such? Let’s talk about it together.
2. Raising Christian Children - How can we faithfully obey God’s command to raise children in the way they should go? Will it work? God’s command means God expects us to do our part as faithfully and diligently as possible with His help by the power of the Holy Spirit. What can we do and should do to provide the best probable outcome for producing children who love God, are good people, and are good citizens of our nation?
