A Church in the House

Matthew Henry describes how carrying on family devotions is like having a small church in your house. He answers the questions: What is a church in your house? What are the motives and advantages? What are the practical steps? Henry says that the way of duty is without doubt the way of safety, because the worship of God in one’s house provides protection and is the best policy of insurance, to keep out evil, malice, and mischief.
