The Greatest Investment a Father Can Make: 6 Directives for Leading Our Families

Jun 21, 2026    Chris Cannon

This sermon from Deuteronomy 6 reminds fathers and families that the greatest investment they can make is wholehearted devotion to God and the spiritual leadership of the next generation. Moses gives six directives: make obedience to God’s Word a priority, love God with all your heart, diligently teach His truth to your children, worship Him alone, submit to His authority, and remember His faithfulness in the past. The message emphasizes that parents are the primary discipleship influence in the home and that faith is passed from one generation to the next through intentional teaching and faithful example. Ultimately, strong families are built not on worldly success, but on a growing relationship with God.
