strong family – 11:3 Restoration

113Restoration.com is principally about restoring the Biblical family structure. There are many tools in the adversary’s bag that are used to tear family apart. One such tool, often unrecognized, is work related.

While God’s plan for Adam was to have dominion and to be fruitful and multiply, it wasn’t for Adam to go one way and his helper, Chava, to go another. Rather, evidenced all through Scripture, families worked together, whether agriculturally or in a trade. Simply, families with a unified vision, are much more stable against the attacks of the adversary and much more resilient against the instability of the economy if some simple knowledge is applied.

I just reviewed a book by Rory Groves on natsab.com that I strongly recommend as a clear roadmap to building a family friendly source of income. Durable Trades not only explains why a family business in the ‘durable trades’ is great wisdom, but details over 60 durable trades and their respective pluses and minuses!! Of even better news is that many can be worked simultaneously further diversifying and securing family income while strengthening your family through shared vision, work, and interaction.

Details in that article as well as links to a youtube video interview. Check it out!!

The primary focus of 113Restoration is the Restoration of kol Israel through the restoration of the most basic building block of culture and society: Family. And, more specifically, rebuilding marriage and the man.

Scripture clearly articulates that the ‘sin problem’ stems from Adam (Rom. 5:12-19), and the ‘fix,’ begins with redemption in the Second Adam (Yeshua) and is carried forth through the rebuilding of all ‘Adams’ and their families.

We, at 113Restoration, have focused on marriage and the proper roles of man and woman, and these will continue to be a focus. However, it is necessary to expand our scope to address the broader roles of husband/father and wife/mother. I’ve personally felt the need for this in our fellowship and immediate circle as the Father continues to place GREAT resources in my path that deal with masculinity and its many facets. To that end, some of the fathers and sons in our fellowship are planning a weekend hiking and studying masculinity and the Biblical mandate for dominion. We are taking intentional steps to strengthen the masculinity and sharpen the vision of our sons.
