How you treat your parents says more about your walk with God than you might realize.
In this message to Redeemer Students, Pastor Terrell Medina teaches from Ephesians 6:1–4 to show how a student’s relationship with their parents reflects their relationship with the Lord.
Obedience and honor aren’t just about rules—they reveal the condition of the heart.
This sermon addresses real-life situations students face: peaceful homes, tense homes, unbelieving parents, broken families, and the temptation to rebel or withdraw.
Pastor Terrell explains the difference between obedience (what you do) and honor (how you do it), and why both matter deeply to God.
Through Scripture and personal testimony, students are challenged to see their home as a mission field and their obedience as an act of worship—not to earn approval, but to glorify Christ.
