Families live in a culture today with values that often oppose those that Jesus taught.





Culture says,


"Value things."





Christ says, "Value people.





" Culture says, "Put yourself first."





Christ says, "Serve others.





" Culture says, "Never be satisfied with what you have; yearn for newer, bigger, brighter."





Christ says, "The abundant life that I bring is peace, joy, and contentment.





" Culture says, "Hurry up, be busy, do, do, do."





Christ says, "Slow down, remember the Sabbath day, and keep it holy.





" Culture says, "Money and power and status are our gods; worship them."





Christ says, "God is God; worship God only.





" Culture says, "Now!"





Christ says, "Focus on the things that are eternal and I am with you always.





" Culture can be toxic for children and other living things with its
emphasis on acquisition, materialism, and self-centered living. 





Christ calls us into community - to love one another as we have been loved.
