Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast

Uninvited Guests - The Fight for a Godly Family


Listen Later

The Apostle Paul reminds us in Ephesians that a Christian’s battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of darkness. Join us as Chip exposes powerful lies that have misled believers for centuries and are undermining the institution of marriage.

The command: Walk differently

  • Walking worthy of your CALLING -Ephesians 4:1, 17
  • Walking in LOVE, like Christ -Ephesians 5:2
  • Walking as children of LIGHT -Ephesians 5:8
  • Walking not as unwise, but as WISE -Ephesians 5:15

How?

  • By letting your relationship with God—with Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit—be the one central, most important thing that focuses your mind around the truth of how to live. -Ephesians 5:15-20
  • By applying the instructions for the Spirit-filled life to the family structure. -Ephesians 5:21-6:4

The ultimate context:

  • The armor of God is detailed immediately after family instructions to frame the family as a primary spiritual battlefield for fighting lies. -Ephesians 6:10-18

Fighting for your family

  • Identify lies and understand where they come from and what they do.
  • Understand that lies make it impossible for children to grow up in a safe, stable, supportive environment where they feel valued, encouraged, and supported.
  • Recognize that the most dangerous lies are the ones that you believe to the point where you think it’s good.

The family as a witness

  • Few things will be more important to show the world the love of Christ than marriages that reflect Jesus and His Church.
  • Our mission: To show the world that there is hope by identifying lies in our families and culture, and building Spirit-powered homes that glorify God.
