When you think about God — when you picture Him looking at you — whose face do you see?
For most of us, that picture was formed long before we had any say in it. The home we grew up in gave us our first image of what authority looks like, what love looks like, and what grace does or doesn't feel like. And if you are a parent, a grandparent, a mentor, or anyone investing in the next generation — you are forming that picture for someone right now.
In this message, Pastor J. Spurling opens Ephesians 5 and 6 and shows us that Paul's instructions for the home aren't just practical parenting advice — they're rooted in the gospel itself. The way Christ loves His church is the pattern for the way we form the people in our care. Not with pressure. Not with provocation. With grace.
This message is for everyone — not just parents. Because every one of us is either forming someone or being formed by someone.
