Hb3

Which family most defines who you are? Your biological family or your adopted family? As believers, we are members (by adoption) of the family of God!

We live in a culture where the core building block is being destroyed. Most of us desire to be identified as "individuals" and are offended if someone categorizes us with a particular group. Even if that group is our own family. We often push away from other members of our family and say, "we are not like them."

We need to remember that God created humans to live in committed relationships with each other. Marriage and family was God's intentional gift for all of us! The church is His household and we are individually members of it. Our identity should be found in Christ and that identity is clarified in our believing community, which is the "household" of God.

Live like you belong to God's family.
