What are the qualities and nature of a household built on God's ways?  Perhaps you, in your family, have a very clear understanding of what your household entails and aspires to?  Are the qualities and nature of God's household reflected in your biological family?  Are they reflected in your spiritual family, our Church?  If the answer to either of those last two questions is no, what can you do change that?

GROW | Discussion - Option #2
In Ephesians 3:10-11, Paul writes that our Church is vessel in which Satan and his thugs are informed of God's manifold wisdom!  How is our Church to become the manifold wisdom of God?  What part to do you play in that?

SOW | Application
Before today's message, what did you think was the purpose of the Church?  How does this change your participation in our Church?  What can you do to participate in our Church becoming all that God has created and called us to be?
