Message Highlights

Point 1: The Source of a Father’s Strength

Pastor Greg McEwen drew our attention to the powerful declaration in Philippians 4:13. He reminded us that the strength to be a present, loving, and effective father doesn’t come from our own abilities, but from Christ who strengthens us. The message wasn’t about dads having superpowers, but about them having a super source. Pastor Greg unpacked how Paul’s contentment in all circumstances (Philippians 4:11-12) is the foundation for this strength, teaching fathers that they can navigate the highs and lows of parenting through their reliance on God.

Reflection

Philippians 4:13, “I can do all this through him who gives me strength,” resonated deeply within the context of fatherhood. It’s a verse of profound empowerment. Pastor Greg’s message helped us see it not as a declaration of unlimited personal ability, but as a statement of complete dependence on God. For fathers facing challenges—be it financial pressure, emotional strain, or the weight of responsibility—this verse serves as a divine promise that they are not alone and are equipped for the task through Christ.

Weekly Challenge

This week, we want to challenge all the dads to identify one area where they feel they are lacking. Instead of striving in your own power, apply the lesson from Philippians 4:13 by specifically praying for Christ’s strength in that situation each day. For everyone else, take a moment to encourage a father in your life, reminding him of this powerful truth.

Closing

Thanks for reflecting with us! We pray this message continues to encourage you and your family. We look forward to worshiping with you again next Sunday!
