What is the role that God has given to Christian men in the home? This discussion is the first part of a series that we intend to air, namely: The Christian man in the home, the Christian man in the church and the Christian man in society. For this discussion we embark on this first discussion by looking at the first book of the Bible, Genesis. The Christian home is THE covenant unit. We touch upon the covenant promises of God to our families. What about the worth of women as compared to men? Well, that is simple - there is no distinction with respect to a woman's worth or we could say with respect to their ontological being. What is the role of a man in the family? For that you will have to listen to this podcast! We also touch upon the necessity of a covenantal perspective as we embrace the biblical Calvinistic understanding pertaining to soteriology - we feel that a covenantal perspective brings softness, love and precious and deep meaning to the whole theological landscape. Leave out the doctrines pertaining to God's covenant love, and you are left with a harsher construct that seems lacking. In other words, it is the covenant that brings our understanding of God's seeking and saving us into right perspective. Salvation is completely of God, and it is based on his electing love and further ties into His placing specific children into our Christian homes. Participants: Dr. John Vance, Dan Elmendorf
