Are We Leading Our Families to Be Like This Shallow Small Group?

Should We Be Frustrated with the Complexity of the Bible?

Families as Churches

"Christian families should be churches, wherein God should be worshiped. It is the sin of the whole family, especially of the heads thereof, when it is neglected. I say the whole, because it must needs be offensive to God that while his worship lies neglected in a family, there is none there willing to take it up, and supply the defect. Besides, there is a neglect of it, where it is performed, viz. when any members of the family neglect to join therein, but unnecessarily absent themselves, or being present do not join in their hearts with the speaker."

-Thomas Boston
