August 2, 2020

Key Text: Colossians 3:19 – 21

Summary: Husbands are to love their wives and not be harsh with them. Children are to obey their parents. Fathers are not to provoke their children.

He is to love his family in a way that reflects the heart of God. God expects husbands and fathers to lead with gentleness.
