"Family is a theological, sociological, and redemptive community" - Ted Tripp

Family/the household is the theological learning place.

Family is a sociological community; it's where we see conflicts as opportunities to understand ourselves and those around us.

Family is a redemptive community; we can understand the behavior of those in our household by identifying the sin in our own heart.

We cannot impress our children with the fame of God's name if we are not impressed with Him ourselves.

one of the vital questions of our purpose and existence is this: "Were you made to see, or to be seen?"

If Jesus is not taking up the glory in your life, everything else will.

It's easy to be a glutton for glory, and the only cure is to have a vision of Jesus that outstrips our vision of ourselves.

Colossians 1:16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. our sole purpose is to magnify the glory of God!

“Be Thou exalted over my reputation; Make me ambitious to please Thee Even if as a result I must sink into obscurity And my name be forgotten as a dream...” - A.W. Tozer

We’re not just consumers, we’re contributors.

We gather and get to say weekly, “I love Jesus more than my stuff”

We gather to contribute to each other, to build each other up, to spur each other on to love and good works.

You digging in deep with these people is how God plans to keep you a Christian.

Distraction, not destruction, might be the greatest enemy of your soul.

Technology isn’t the problem, our heart is the problem.

Our mission is to know Jesus and to make Jesus known.

The invitation of God is to put our minds on things that matter, things that you’ll care about 20,000 years from now.

“Our souls are stuffed with small things, and there is no room for the great.” - John Piper
