All in the Family

The TV show All in the Family highlighted a New York city family that was plagued by drama and dysfunction. The comedy was one of the most celebrated primetime hits of the 70’s and 80’s, and the over-the-top roles of Archie, Edith, Gloria and Meathead will forever be etched in TV history.

All in the Family, among many other things, depicts how difficult family life can be at times. In reality, even family life in the church can be difficult at times. God designed both the nuclear family and the church family, and His Word has a lot to say about both.

This coming Sunday, we’ll focus on 1 Thessalonians 5:12-22 where Paul shares some Spirit-inspired advice to a young church family. Paul’s goal was to help that church function like a loving family and bring glory to Jesus Christ.

I hope you can join us this Sunday for a message that relates to all of us who call FFC our church home and family.

On a final note – remember to set your clocks back one hour Saturday night.

Blessings,

pastor jamie
