What’s in your heart is displayed in your home. When God shapes our hearts, our hearts transform our homes, and our homes change our cities.

What’s in your heart is displayed in your home. God designed the home to be a greenhouse—a place where His presence cultivates an environment of life and life abundantly. To manage our households means to be present, intentional, and actively involved in the well-being of those God has entrusted to us. Every member of the home has a role to play. As we allow God to shape our hearts, our hearts shape the culture of our homes, and what is cultivated in our homes eventually flows into our cities. God blesses our homes not to keep them in the home, but so that the life He produces in us can be multiplied out to renew cities.

Jesus didn’t come to give us nice, cordial families. He came to build families that carry His mission.

The picture we see of family in the Old Testament is a grim one, yet a source of hope to use as a blueprint. It’s a wonder how a family survived after you look at the depth of the dysfunction that has been passed on for generations. We see rampant sins piled up that are deep and wide. The end of the Old Testament gives a stark warning of a curse on the land if we don’t figure this out. Fortunately, we have someone who does not come to get rid of our past, but to rebuild a new family. Jesus is the master builder who comes to break the curse off the land and our families if we build it as He designs. What does family look like in the New Testament? Is it a white picket fence with a swing set in the back, the parents living with low cholesterol, and setting up their retirement? Or did Jesus come to bring a family on mission because the stakes of hell and sin are high? As we begin our series on how to manage the household, let’s ask for God’s heart for His design of family—to build what He wants to sustain. Jesus didn’t come to give us nice, cordial families. He came to build families that carry His mission.

This week we follow the story of Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz and see a physical representation of a spiritual truth: there is possibility for true redemption (freedom), reconciliation (peace), and restoration (wholeness), no matter how difficult life’s circumstances. In this process, we learn that mere proximity to Jesus is insufficient for the lasting provision that we desperately need. In order to receive true and lasting redemption, reconciliation, and restoration, what’s needed is genuine relationship: Abiding in Christ.
