What does it really look like for the Lord to build a home?

In this episode, Pastor Jeff continues the "Family God's Way" series by exploring three essential pillars of a God-built household: His Purpose, His Church, and His Glory.

Drawing from 1 Peter 2:9–10, Ephesians 1:22 23, and Colossians 1:18, we discover that:

• We are not just families—we are God's people, redeemed to proclaim His praises.

• We were never designed to grow alone—God shapes marriages and families through His church, the fullness of Christ.

• Above all, the Christian home exists for His glory, that Christ may have the preeminence in all things.

Pastor Jeff unpacks how these truths transform everyday family life, calling husbands, wives, parents, and children to live with a higher purpose than personal comfort or cultural ideals. When God's purposes guide the home, when the church supports and strengthens it, and when Christ is exalted above all, the household becomes a living testimony of His grace.

If you long for a marriage and family shaped not by self-interest but by Scripture, this episode will encourage, challenge, and refocus your heart on the One who builds the home.

In this episode, we explore the foundational truth of Psalm 127:1 (NKJV):
"Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it."

Every marriage, every household, and every family is shaped by someone or something. Scripture teaches that God Himself desires to be both Architect and Builder of the Christian home. When we attempt to construct family life in our own wisdom or strength, the results are fragile, fleeting, and ultimately futile. But when the Lord builds the house, His work produces stability, unity, and spiritual fruit that endures.

Join Pastor Jeff as he walks through the implications of Psalm 127, examining:

• Why every family needs God as its Builder

• How human effort becomes fruitful only under God's hand

• The difference between a home built on self-effort and a home built on Scripture

• How to invite the Lord to shape your marriage, parenting, and household

• What it means to surrender the "blueprints" of your life to the Master Builder

This episode offers biblical encouragement, practical insight, and Christ-centered hope for anyone longing for a home that reflects the grace and presence of God.

What is worship really about? In heaven, all attention is fixed on one Person — "the Lamb who was slain" (Revelation 5:12). From Psalms to the Gospels to the Great Commission, Scripture reveals one unchanging truth: Christ is the central focus of all true worship.

In this episode, we trace the thread of worship through key passages — from Psalm 2:12, to the disciples bowing in awe on stormy seas, to the worship of the risen and ascended Christ. Each moment reminds us that worship isn't about our emotions or experiences, but about acknowledging the infinite worth of Jesus Himself.

Leaders and counselors alike are called to model this heavenly mindset on earth — keeping Christ at the center of every heart, home, and ministry.

Let this episode draw you back to what truly matters: Christ alone, worthy of all honor and glory.
