Multigenerational Faithfulness (7 of 7)
Series: Family Foundations
Jim Perdue
Ps. 145, Deut. 6, 2 Tim. 1-2, Titus 2, Ps. 89
Intro/Attention
Since Mother’s Day we’ve been in a series called Family Foundations. We have talked about how the Bible provides the foundation for everything our families face. When we aren’t sure what to do or where to turn, trust in the Lord and His Word.
*I know many of you have been through our Discover Second Class within the past year or so. We’ve had a lot of families partner with our church in ministry and mission. Near the beginning of the class, we talk about a few of our commitments as a church. One is that we want to be a multi-faceted church. That means we have multiple ministries that support the mission – kids, students, sports, men’s, ladies, etc. Another commitment is that we want to be a multi-cultural church. We believe the gospel is for all people and one day, every nation, tribe, and tongue will gather around the throne. A third commitment that we talk about is the fact that we are a multi-generational church. That means that we want to minister to people from every age and stage of life. One of the blessings of pastoring a multi-generational church is you get to see parents and grandparents raising their families within the same church. I know some of you have three and maybe even four generations here at Second. What a blessing!*
As I finish this sermon series today, I thought about what I wanted to leave you with. If someone asked me, “What’s the vision for your family?” Or “What’s the goal you want to accomplish through this sermon series?” I think I would answer it with two words: Multigenerational Faithfulness. The vision for my family is simple; I want to see multiple generations of my family loving Jesus and serving Him.
*I heard about a Sunday School teacher who asked his class, “Why do you love Jesus?” He got all sorts of interesting answers. One kid said, “Because God created the whole wor ...
