    “The secret of success is in the blocking and tackling. Focus on the blocking and tackling and everything else will come along.”

    Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 23, 2013
     | 7,406 views

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more
