Speaker: Pastor Caleb Culver
Date: February 27, 2021

Be Radiant is a series that focuses on the core values of Radiant Church and dives deeper into what it truly means to BE RADIANT on a daily basis.

Pastor Caleb Culver delivers a powerful teaching on being Family Oriented as we continue our Be Radiant series.

Focus Scripture

1 JOHN 3:1-2 (ESV) 

“See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2 Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.”
 

EPHESIANS 2:19 (ESV) 

“So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,”

ROMANS 8:14-16 (ESV) 

“For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” 16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,”

MATTHEW 12:46-50 (ESV) 

“While he was still speaking to the people, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, asking to speak to him. 48 But he replied to the man who told him, “Who is my mother, and who are my brothers?” 49 And stretching out his hand toward his disciples, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”

Sermon Highlights

  • The church is the family of God on earth

  • Family bears His image

  • The world is redefining family in order to remove God and place self at the center

  • The world wants to replace your family – The church wants to restore your family

  • The way the church operates and functions is family oriented

  • You were found by a Father, but you’re formed in family

  • The way we relate to the church and one another is family oriented

  • The enemy wants patrons in pews, waiting to be entertained

  • The Father wants Son and Daughters in the living room, waiting to serve

  • The way we relate to the world is family-oriented

  • What if we saw prodigals and the lost as sons and daughters that will be back in the family soon?
