From the series "Unity In The Body: A Study of Ephesians"
In this week’s message from Ephesians 6:1–9, we continue exploring Paul’s “household codes” and what they mean for us today. Looking at children and parents, as well as slaves and masters in the context of first-century Rome, we discover timeless principles about authority, responsibility, and living “as unto the Lord.”
This sermon challenges children to obey and honor their parents, reminds fathers to lead with gentleness and intentional spiritual guidance, and calls all believers—whether under authority or in authority—to reflect Christ in their relationships. From the home to the workplace, we are reminded that every role we hold is ultimately lived before Jesus.
As we navigate family dynamics, parenting struggles, workplace tensions, and generational responsibilities, this message points us back to God’s design for the family and the importance of humility, obedience, and Christ-centered leadership. Ultimately, the key to thriving in every relationship is walking daily in the Lord and preparing to “put on the armor of God.”
