Fatherhood
On this Fathers Day, Pastor Owen will explore the profound responsibility of fatherhood as depicted in the scriptures. Drawing from Matthew 16:25, we understand that salvation is intricately tied to transformation, highlighting the spiritual battle fathers face daily (Ephesians 6:12). We are reminded that our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of evil (2 Corinthians 10:3-5), emphasizing the need for vigilance against the adversary (1 Peter 5:8).
The world relentlessly challenges the role of fathers, seeking to dismantle their significance. However, through prioritizing the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33) and embracing the truth embodied in Christ (John 1:14), fathers can combat this assault on their identity.
Moreover, fathers wield immense power through their words (Ephesians 4:29), recognizing the influence they hold in shaping lives (Proverbs 18:21). As we honor our divine calling, we understand that our words carry the weight of life and death (Psalm 22:3), thus reinforcing the importance of speaking truth and grace into the lives of our loved ones. Join us as we explore the depth and significance of fatherhood, empowering men to embrace their role with courage, wisdom, and love.
