Stewarding Our Family

What has God placed in your hands to care for? In this opening message of the "Entrusted" series, Pastor Chris unpacks the foundational reality of biblical stewardship: nothing on earth actually belongs to us because everything belongs to the Lord. We are simply caretakers entrusted with His blessings, starting with the most crucial human relationships we have: our families.

Through relatable personal stories and practical wisdom, Pastor Chris outlines three key principles (Prioritize, Protect, and Pursue) applied across three primary areas of life: our marriages, our children, and our local church family.

Key Takeaways:

•Steward Your Marriage: Put your spouse second only to Christ, protect your relationship by catching the "little foxes" before they cause damage, and never stop pursuing romantic intimacy.

•Steward Your Children: Train your children intentionally in the Word, stay actively involved in their lives to protect them, and pursue their interests even when they differ from your own.

•Steward Your Church Family: Treat the church as a true family where we bear one another's burdens, eliminate gossip, and ensure that single parents, widows, and newcomers walk in real community.
