🎁 FREE GIFT: 5 Days To Transform Your Family Into A Team: https://familyteams.com/transform Why did God invent the family? Even though it's very obviously in the Bible, most Christians today have no idea what the family is for, or why God made it. In fact, the standard answer, at least in our Protestant churches, seems to be that the secular world's version of family is just fine and we don't need to look any further. But this is crazy! We have a major family crisis in the western world right now, and much of it is because Christians have forgotten what the Bible so plainly states. In this episode, we're challenging Christians to actually take this very specific verse seriously, and start to live out the five-fold mandate God gave to families. On this episode, we talk about: 0:00 Why Did God Invent The Family? 1:28 The Redefinition of Family 3:11 What Would Happen If The Church Took This Verse Seriously? 6:20 This Is What "Be Fruitful" Means 8:40 Multiply Generationally 10:34 Filling The Earth 12:22 How Do We Subdue Today? 14:02 Extending The Kingdom of God by Ruling 15:13 What If You Adopted A Truly Biblical Vision of Family?
