Worship, Work, & Dominion Around the Table

Christians will not rebuild the world while neglecting the place where worship, work, discipleship, and future faithfulness are first formed: the home. Modern culture treats the household as little more than a place to sleep, consume, stream, and recover before returning to “real life.” Scripture presents something far greater. The household is a God-ordained institution of worship, government, education, production, hospitality, and mission. In this episode of Altars & Ashes, Austin Tucker, B.D. Fleming, and Robbie Stringer discuss what it means to make the home the headquarters of Christian life. They examine the family as the first society, the danger of passive fatherhood, the discipleship taking place around the dinner table, the myth of neutral education, and the need for Christian households to become productive rather than merely consumptive. A strong Christian home limits the power of the state, resists the fragmentation of modern life, and forms people who know who they are, where they belong, and whom they serve. This is not a retreat from the world. It is where the faithful rebuilding of the world begins. The reformation we desire will not begin with a political campaign, viral post, conference, or platform. It begins with fathers who shepherd, mothers who nurture, children who are trained, tables where Christ is honored, and households that produce more than they consume. The household that serves as headquarters today shapes the battalion of tomorrow. Build accordingly. Get full access to Dust & Glory Media at dustandglorymedia.substack.com/subscribe
