America’s Home Today

In today's America, divorce rates are high, children are born out of wedlock, and single-parent households are increasing. The breakdown of the home is evident with issues like substance abuse, gambling, and neglect. However, Christ's presence in homes can bring healing and blessings. Jesus visited homes in biblical times, bringing health, life, wisdom, and salvation. We need Christ in our homes today to guide us in raising children, dealing with illness and death, and teaching us true values and morality. Let's welcome Christ into our homes for restoration and blessings.
