A Household Gospel: Fulfilling the Great Commission in Our Homes

In Scripture, parents are instructed to teach their kids how to love God and saturate their home with the gospel (Deut 4:9, 6:1-7; Eph 6:104). Husbands and wives are commanded to mirror Jesus in their marriages (Eph 5:22-33). We understand these commands in light of the gospel-in light of Jesus Christ (2 Cor 4:6). Jesus is the hero of our families.

That's what A Household Gospel is about. It's ordinary means rooted in an extraordinary gospel. It's about starting the great commission in our homes. It's about rehearsing the gospel story when we sit to eat, lay down to sleep, rise up in the morning, and everywhere in between.
