Multi-Generational Church Ministry
At Emmaus we believe that God has given parents, especially fathers the authority and responsibility to train and instruct children up in the Lord. In addition, we believe that God has ordained the gathering of all generations, young to old, to worship Him together in one place and at one time. Therefore, each and every Sunday our children worship the Lord alongside their parents and other members of God’s family.

Text: 1 Tim 6:6-11
Notes: emmauscf.org/sermons
Begin with sharing general thoughts about the Sermon/Sermon Text
1. How are you doing in the area of coveting? Share with your group.
2.
What are practical ways we can pursue godliness in our daily lives? Share.
3. Are you currently content with your life? Why or why not? What need to change or stay the same? Share.
Family Application: Discuss this week’s Catechism questions and share how to communicate these truths to your family.
Gospel Sharing Application: Share about ways in which you have been able to share, proclaim, display, or model the Gospel during this last week.
Suggested verse for meditation:
6 But godliness with contentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and[ we cannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. (1 Tim 6:6-8)

While it is true that the people of God are to gather corporately to worship on the Lord’s Day (Hebrews 10:24-25), the scriptures also imply that we are to worship God in our homes between each Lord’s day (Deuteronomy 6:7). Emmaus’ weekly Household Worship Guide provides structure to lead singles, married couples, and families with children of all ages in the daily worship of God within the home. The guide simply encourages Christians to read, pray, and sing. In addition, the elder’s of Emmaus encourage the use of the Baptist Catechism for systematic instruction in the Christian faith.
This is a guide and should be used as such. The intent is not for an individual or family to follow the guide point by point, but rather to utilize the resource to craft a daily worship experience appropriate for their home. Keep it simple, keep it short, and keep it consistent (and don’t forget to be patient and flexible too).
For a detailed prayer guide, and for commentary on the catechism, please follow the links provided in the corresponding sections below.
May God be glorified each and every day!

Text: Ephesians 4:1-5:21 (read as group)
Notes: emmauscf.org/sermons
*Begin with sharing general thoughts about the Sermon/Sermon Text*
1. What is the secret to a happy marriage? And how should “Love” be defined biblically?
2. Compare and contrast the worldly definition of love with the biblical definition. Discuss how each of these definitions look different when applied to a marriage relationship.
3. Are you currently “loving” your spouse? If unmarried, are you “loving” those around you especially other believers? Share.
Family Application: Discuss this week’s Catechism questions and share how to communicate these truths to your family.
Gospel Sharing Application: Share about ways in which you have been able to share, proclaim, display, or model the Gospel during this last week.
Suggested verse for meditation: “Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.”

Pre-Introduction
Last week we looked at the roles of the husband and wife as described in Ephesians 5:22-33. Wives are to submit to their husbands as the church does to Christ, and husbands are to love their wives as Christ loved the church, giving himself up for her.
These are commands to be obeyed, friends. But the Christian might still wonder, how exactly am I to fulfill these roles and responsibilities consistently and well? What exactly does it look like for a wife to lovingly submit and for a husband to lovingly lead? Read the rest of Sermon: The “Secret” of Marriage: Ephesians 4:1-5:21 »
"Him we proclaim,
warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom,
that we may present everyone mature in Christ."
(Colossians 1:28, ESV)
