What Matters Most?

In Ephesians Paul has some detailed instruction for how families
ought to function. But these instructions are found deep into his
letter to the church and only come after Paul has revealed the
mystery of the Gospel. How we live our lives in the context of
family is heavily dependent upon what we believe about God and the
implications the Gospel have on our lives and relationships. We
matter to God and when God matters most to is the Gospel will
inform us about ourselves and the people we live with, it will
reform us as we seek to remove sin and prioritize Jesus above all
things and it will transform is into humble servants who serve
others out of a reverence for Jesus.
