God is like the sun and you are like one of the plants.

Dr. Tony Evans says we must stay within God's gravitational pull

over to keep ourselves and our families safe.

If you man are not a man of God, if you women are not women of God,

if we don't raise children or we impact to be children of God,

then don't be surprised if you cling off into outer space.

This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans.

The author, speaker, senior pastor of Oaklef Bible Fellowship

in Dallas, Texas, and president of the Urban Alternative.

Dr. Evans says the reason so many families are in trouble

is that we leave God out of our marriage and home life.

Today he takes a look at Ephesians chapter 5

and explains how we can return the Lord to the center of our families.

Let's join him.

Statistics tell us that at least half of the people gathered

under the sound of my voice will be participants in a broken family,

at least half.

Culturally, half of all marriages end in divorce.

Half of the children in our nation will grow up never knowing what it is

or only partially knowing what it is to have a dad at home.

And so the issue of the family is critical.

And the reason it's so critical is because everything else is predicated on it.
