Building a God-Centered Home

from Contending for the Word Q&A · host Dave Jenkins

In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Dave Jenkins answers a vital question for Christian families: what does it mean to build a God-centered home? Many homes today are shaped by schedules, comfort, achievement, or cultural expectations. Scripture, however, calls believers to build their homes on a far stronger and lasting foundation. Anchored in Joshua 24:15, this episode explains that a God-centered home is not a perfect or conflict-free home, but one ordered by God's Word, shaped by the character of Christ, and strengthened by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Dave walks through five biblical pillars of a God-centered home: • Christ as Lord over the household • Scripture as the foundation • Prayer as a daily family rhythm • Grace, repentance, and forgiveness in relationships • Faithful commitment to the local church This episode provides biblical encouragement for parents, couples, and individuals seeking to honor Christ in their homes and cultivate faithful discipleship for generations to come. Key Scripture: Joshua 24:15; Colossians 1:18; Matthew 7:24–25; Ephesians 4:32 For more from Contending for the Word Q&A, visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/contending-for-the-word-qa/
