Are you making time for build a godly family?

In this short clip, Sam Waldron speaks of the importance of allocating time for the building of a godly family. This process begins with family worship but also includes spending time with one another and building relationships. In the society that we live in, it is easy to become too busy to prioritize and practice these and other things that would support a godly family life. 

There does seem to be a real tendency for families to be very, very busy. And in that busyness, not to have time for a godly family life. And that of course begins, but doesn't end, with having regular family worship. But it also requires time for simply for mom and dad and the kids to chill out together and have time together. And in our modern society kids are so busy with their teams, their music, their drama, and a thousand other things and so are parents that I think it's really my biggest concern is an over commitment and I think one of the things I want to say is that look, if you're going to have a godly family, you have to take time to do it.

And that means you have to be really selective. I'm not against music and I'm not against a drama of the right kind, I'm not against kids playing sports. But you've got to be really selective and you've got to control those things and not let those things control your family.
