In this sermon based on Ephesians 5:21-6:4, Tim reflects on how our beliefs about family life can be shaped by experiences and media, comparing that to biblical teachings. This sermon emphasizes key biblical principles: husbands should love their wives as Christ loves the Church, wives should submit to their husbands, and parents, especially fathers, should lead their children's spiritual growth.

Tim then addresses the issue of divorce, highlighting that God does not approve of it except in a specific context of sin, and stresses the importance of forgiveness and grace through baptism. Ultimately, the message encourages following God's design for family life, rooted in love, forgiveness, and mutual respect.

This Sunday sermon, based on Ephesians 5 verses 21-6:4 , was preached at Grace of God Lutheran Church on October 6, 2024. This sermon is preached by Pastor Timothy J. Walsh, a member of WELS (Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod). Scripture selections come from the New International Version.
