The family is the basic nucleus of any community and how the family goes so goes the nation and the world. In the human factor the home has always been the beginning point of everything whether good or bad. The building blocks of life are established in the relationship of the home such as culture, language, disposition and character. As husbands and wives unions are formed that create the home and if blessed in this union children bring another sense of wonder to make a fuller family. One unique quality that everyone shares is they were brought into the world in the same fashion. However the home created in the union of two people is often very different.
How can we find answers for challenges faced in the home? As husbands and wives we struggle to maintain the fires of love and devotion to one another finding often the questions that cause us to look for better answers. The plight of children is a nagging demand to give them all they need without giving them everything they want. Is it possible to be married for life? Can a home be happy? Are children truly a blessing to the home? Where can we find the right answers?
Beginning Sunday October 7, the Trenton church of Christ will attempt to offer Biblical instruction as we focus together the needs of the home. Max Dawson from Beaumont, Texas begins a series of studies on the home that will focus on topics like “Back to Eden” where the home was first created. What better way to understand the home than going back to its beginning as God designed and intended the home to be.
Max will open the series with a study of “Five power points that will bless your family.” We all like to make things a little simpler in life and five points will be easy to remember and apply to make our homes be a place of security and love. He will direct a lesson Sunday night on “Helping your kids become responsible adults.” How important to see the vision of training our children to be complete adults. Many adults have never learned how to be happy because they did not have the early training in childhood.
Beginning Monday night lessons will include “Five things your parents must do.” The challenge of bringing up well-adjusted children is to understand the role parents play in the formation of those characters. Tuesday night is a special night for YOUNG PEOPLE – “Will the real me please stand up?” Often children today have an identity crisis and through God’s word we can learn how to give them hope for life. On Wednesday night a lesson will focus on “What dads teach their kids about marriage.” Someone said the most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother. Dads teach a lot about marriage to their children.
The home is an important place to find happiness in marriage even after the children leave. Thursday night the lesson will be “Your fiftieth wedding anniversary” concluding Friday night with “The autumn of our lives.” A successful marriage is not characterized by an absence of problems but the ability to solve those problems.
A warm welcome awaits you. You will not be asked for donations or embarrassed in any way. Our services are warm and inviting. Bring your family and enjoy an hour of thoughtful study of God’s word. We can do this together. Come! Sunday morning at 9:30am and then each evening Sunday through Friday at 7:30pm. See you then!
