In Building Godly Families, Dr. Michael Youssef boldly calls Christian parents—especially fathers—to reject cultural compromise and return to God’s design for the home. With unwavering authority from Scripture, he contrasts faithful men like Job with the tragic failures of Lot, urging families to be rooted in repentance, prayer, and the Truth of God’s Word. Each message confronts the subtle lies of the world and challenges believers to reclaim their priestly roles through daily intercession and holy living. This urgent series is a call to raise children who fear the Lord, uphold Biblical convictions, and shine the light of Christ in a dark and drifting culture.

In this urgent message, Dr. Michael Youssef confronts the false confidence placed in techniques, programs, and self-esteem, calling parents back to faith in the living God. From John 4, he points to a desperate father who believed Christ’s Word on behalf of his dying son—and would not quit. True faith, Dr. Youssef declares, grows from crisis faith into continuing, confident, confirmed, and contagious faith. Parents are called to repent of doubt, trust the inerrant Scriptures, and intercede without ceasing for their families. Jesus Christ, fully divine and utterly trustworthy, still honors believing prayer. God works through covenant faith, and He calls families to stand firm against the culture by believing Him—no matter how long it takes.
