City of God Families - All of Christ for All of Life

The City of God Families is a short, monthly podcast for the entire family to listen to together with the hope that your family will continue the discussion where this podcast leaves off. On this episode, we discuss the theme "All of Christ for All of Life"

We often fall into the trap of relegating God to Sundays, neglecting His presence in our daily lives. But God desires to walk with us every day, as revealed through Jesus. Just as Jesus reconciled all things, every detail of our lives matters to Him. Living well means living with Jesus in mind.

Just as a bike needs pedals to move, and a TV needs a remote to turn on, our lives function best with God at the center. Jesus holds all things together, even the mundane tasks of our week. Remembering Him transforms our attitudes and approaches.
