Every society is built on the father-son relationship. But what happens when hundreds of generations of fathers fail?
In this message, Pastor Josh Claycamp traces Jesus' genealogy from Adam to the Jordan River, exposing a pattern of broken fatherhood—favoritism, neglect, abuse, abandonment—that runs through every generation.
Then, at Jesus' baptism, something changes. The heavens open. The Spirit descends. And the Heavenly Father speaks the words every son longs to hear: "You are my beloved Son. With you I am well pleased."
In this passage, we have a glimpse of what a perfect Father looks like. And through Jesus Christ, this Father offers you adoption and a pattern by which can become a true Son.
IN THIS MESSAGE:
- Why genealogy mattered to Rome (and why it matters to you)
- The tragedy of 77 generations of broken fathers
- What fatherhood & masculinity actually mean (and why we desperately need it)
- How the Father equips His Son to fight the dragon
- Good news for the fatherless.
