Secret Church 11 – Session 3: God’s Design for the Family

About this sermon

As Christians, there is no part of our lives that the Gospel does not touch. This means that the Gospel has implications for things such as marriage, parenting, singleness, and even divorce. Without the Gospel, there is no hope or guidance when navigating family issues. In this session of Secret Church 11, Pastor David Platt provides a biblical theology of the family. Throughout this session, various family issues are tackled from a biblical perspective. By allowing Scripture to shape our understanding of the family, we submit these issues to Christ and allow Him to transform our families for the better.
