Family Ministry at 11th Street

God invented and designed the family, not a man, not a society, and not a government. And the family is very good! In fact, the only thing in creation that was not good was for Adam to be alone. Aloneness is not good; it is not God’s design, and the solution to this problem is the family in Genesis 2. God designed Eve, a helper equal in dignity to Adam to help him accomplish God’s plan for the universe. The family is important, very important.

No wonder why the devil has attacked the family. The devil’s attack is complex and multifaceted. Here at 11th Street, we are fighting back. We want to see the good design for the family lived out in our church, our community, and among all people. Please take a look at what we are doing and feel free to join us in the near future. We’d love to see you and show you how the gospel frees the family up to live purposefully and joyfully.

Motherhood Ministry

1. Motherhood Dinner: From Mess to Rest: Our Church understands the difficulties associated with mothering. Mothering is hard and the demands of our society only make it harder. Additionally, our culture undervalues motherhood significantly and with devastating results. Our motherhood dinner is annual gathering designed to cast a biblical vision of motherhood so that moms in our church can move from mess to rest.
2. Playing in the Park: Our monthly play dates at Sierra Vista Park are refreshing moments for our families. We gather for a time of encouragement in God’s word and to play. If you need some refreshment, feel free to join us. We’d love to meet you and become friends.

Marriage Ministry

1. For Better Marriage Conference: Marriage can be source of profound joy or profound pain, and the gospel can transform painful marriages into extremely joyful marriages. How? The Gospel! Jesus has the power to redeem any marriage, and the proof of this is the cross and the empty tomb. If God can reconcile lost sinners to himself through Jesus, then he can reconcile sinful husbands and wives and transform their marriages. We discuss the theology of all of this and the practice of all of this at our annual marriage conference. We look forward to seeing you in February for this event.
2. Marriage Discipleship: We are able to provide couples especially struggling in their marriages 5 sessions of discipleship. Pastor Anthony uses a “biblical counseling” method to help couples overcome the effects of sin in their marriage and experience God’s design for marriage.
