A Core Value at SCAC

 

To promote Christ as the Head of the household.

The church partners with families to nurture disciples who love God, love others, and who are grounded in biblical teaching.


Family Ministry sees faith begins at home. Christian parents must accept God’s call on them to lead their children to grow spiritually. The church thus aims to provide resources to support marriages, and parenting in order to cultivate family discipleship.

Bible Teaching

Marriage and family are pictures of God’s covenant love and faithfulness (Ephesians 5:32).
The family is God’s primary plan for passing the faith to future generations (Psalm 78).
Husbands were called and equipped to love their wives (Ephesians 5:25-33).
Women were trained and encouraged to be loving wives and mothers (Titus 2:4-5).
Children were taught to honor and obey their parents (Ephesians 6:1-3).
Fathers were called to be spiritual leaders and shepherds for their children (Ephesians 6:4).
Mothers and grandmothers intentionally passed their faith to their children and grandchildren (2 Timothy 1:5).
