Pastor Joel Laswell

Each role in the family unit—Husband, Wife, and Children—teaches us something about God’s ideal in the organization of the church. We began looking at the roles and responsibilities of the family unit with the understanding that church duties first begin at home. One of the greatest problems in the family firm today, marriage specifically, is that the differences between the male and the female have only been taught from a pure physical point of view... mainly an evolutionary based view. The truth that God created man and woman with more than physical differences is not taught much at all in the world and very little in the church--not in any detail. Accepting such a cultural fallacy is one of the greatest failings of the church and thus a major cause in the dysfunction of the family unit.
