Will Your Home Stand?

Series: Turning Houses Into HomesSpeaker: Kris SegrestWhat if the future of our nation doesn't rest in political halls or government institutions, but right inside our own homes? This powerful exploration challenges us to examine the very foundation upon which we're building our families. Drawing from Matthew 7:24-27, we're confronted with two stark choices: building our lives on the solid rock of Christ or the shifting sands of feelings, fantasy, finances, and fairness. The message cuts through cultural romanticism about marriage to reveal a profound truth—our homes aren't primarily about our personal happiness, but about displaying God's glory to a watching world. When people look at our marriages, they should see a living picture of Christ and His church. This isn't just about staying together; it's about being 'built to last' through four essential anchors: Christ-centered purpose, covenant commitment, sacrificial love, and gospel-fueled forgiveness. The Leaning Tower of Pisa serves as a sobering reminder that without the right foundation, even the most impressive structures will eventually crumble. The question we must ask ourselves is honest and urgent: What kind of foundation have we built our homes on? Because when the storms come—and they will come—only those anchored to the Rock will stand firm, impacting generations to come.
