Sermons

In this sermon, Robin Kinstead concludes the Devoted series by exploring what it means to have flourishing families centred on Jesus. Drawing from Genesis 1–2 and Ephesians 5, he reflects on how sin fractures families and communities, but also how Christ restores us into God’s forever family. Robin addresses the challenges of fragmentation in society—such as inequality, polarization, and isolation—and emphasizes repentance, faith in Jesus, and sacrificial love as the foundation for strong family and church life. Using both Scripture and recent events, he calls listeners to live as families that flourish when Christ is at the centre. 5 Questions to Think About: 1. In what ways do you see fragmentation (social, cultural, or spiritual) affecting families today? 2. How does centring your family life on Jesus change the way you relate to one another? 3. What does Ephesians 5 teach us about love, sacrifice, and respect in marriage and relationships? 4. How can the church family step in to support those whose families are broken or grieving? 5. What practical steps can you take this week to put Jesus more clearly at the centre of your home or relationships? 3 Key Takeaways: 1. Families flourish when they are centred on Jesus and shaped by his sacrificial love. 2. Sin leads to fragmentation, but repentance and trust in Christ bring restoration and unity. 3. The church family is called to embody God’s design for flourishing by loving, serving, and supporting one another as part of his forever family.
