The Royal Family

     Family is a vitally important institution in every society. Unfortunately, the nuclear family is fragmented in today’s culture. Factors that contribute are a soaring divorce rate, delayed marriages, and a high rate of mobility. In our mobile society, people have few roots and are no longer surrounded by the extended family of aunts, uncles, grandparents, brothers, and sisters that provided a safety net for previous generations.

     We now have a record number of single adults in America. As our society becomes more fragmented, a sense of great isolation surrounds an increasing number of people. They are lonely and feel cut off. One Gallop poll reported that four in ten Americans admit to frequent feelings of intense loneliness. Americans are, in fact, the loneliest people in the world.

     People are hungering for fellowship, community, and a sense of family. This desire to belong can only be satisfied by a relationship with God and connecting with a local church family. At New Destiny Church, you can find that relationship with God and the extended family that you need.

     The church is identified in scripture as a family (Ephesians 1:5 NLT; 1 Tim 3:15 GWT). Believers are identified as children of God and as brothers and sisters. Thus, the church becomes our spiritual family.

     The family theme needs to be reclaimed. The world has stolen the family theme from the church. Businesses call themselves a family along with clubs, ball teams, and the military, but the church is the best extended family on the planet. It provides a spiritual family to support and encourage us in our walk with God, gives us a place to discover and use our gifts in ministry, places us under the spiritual protection of godly leaders, and gives us the accountability we need to grow.

     The Bible lets us know that you belong in God’s royal family with every other Christian (Ephesians 2:19 LB).  At New Destiny Church we believe you belong here… in the royal family of God. We look forward to seeing you soon at New Destiny Church.
