The Christian Home: God’s Heart for Family and Culture’s Attack on True Family

In today’s society, the idea of family has become increasingly distorted, with cultural narratives that often undermine the biblical foundation of a Christian home. Through media, government policies, and societal norms, the true meaning of family is not only being redefined but attacked. This raises an essential question: What is God’s heart for the family, and how can Christians hold firm to His vision for it amidst such cultural confusion?

The Biblical Foundation of Family

From the very beginning, God established the family as the fundamental unit of society. In Genesis 12:3, God’s promise to Abraham extends to "all the families of the earth," highlighting the importance of the family unit in His divine plan. Similarly, Genesis 28:14 reaffirms this, indicating that families are central to God’s blessing and purpose for humanity.
