As students return to school, we are immediately immersed in the culture of learning. Children do homework, teachers prepare lessons, and parents attend a whole new slate of events. As God’s children, we are also called to school, to learn what it means to live within His family.

Week 3: Learning Respect (Ephesians 5:21-6:9)
In a frequently divided culture, our respect for one another can quickly disappear. God provides a new definition of respect, revealed in Jesus, who both rules over all and serves all. God therefore calls His children to learn His version of respect, bringing dignity to both leaders and servants.
