The reason the pace of our schedule is an obstacle to a gospel-centered culture in our home is simple—creating a culture like this takes time. Sustained, long period of time. We have to talk, we have to pray, we have to read, we have to cry, we have to laugh—we have to do all these things, and we have to do these things together, centered on Jesus.
When you look at these three things, you begin to see that all three of these things are characteristics of the world in which we are living. That means if we want to establish a different kind of culture in our homes, we are already walking uphill. It’s going to be a fight. But it’s a battle worth fighting.
