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 powerful opening to Building Godly Families, Dr. Michael Youssef issues a clear, urgent call for Christian parents—especially fathers—to reclaim their God-ordained role in the home. Drawing from Psalm 127, he declares that unless the Lord builds the house, the family’s labor is in vain. Children are a heritage from the Lord, but only when they are raised in the fear of God and anchored in Biblical Truth. Dr. Youssef exposes the cultural lie of compartmentalized living and insists that true integrity demands a Christ-centered life. When God is central, He grows, blesses, guides, and protects the family. The call is clear: repent, return to God’s design, and raise a generation rooted in the Word.
