First, as followers of Jesus, we like to say there are technically two missions for everyone. There’s the general and then there’s the particular. The general is the mission that every marriage and family on earth has been given. To be fruitful and multiply, and to garden. This is the general purpose of family, or what marriage and family are for. The particular mission is the very specific way God wants to apply the general mission in your family. The particular mission is the one that you and your spouse (and kids) have been brought together by God as a team to do and fulfill.
