Did you know that your child’s worldview is practically fully formed by age 13? As followers of Christ, we bear a tremendous responsibility to teach our children not only to know and follow Jesus but also to understand the profound reasons behind their faith. On today’s episode, Jim welcomes renowned researcher and author Dr. George Barna to discuss the vital importance of raising our children with a strong biblical worldview. This conversation is weighty and full of incredible insight into our roles as teachers and godly examples in the home.
Jim’s Takeaways
- Lead with Integrity
- If you live with integrity, you will have kids who will feel secure because of your integrity.
- Lead with Margin
- Have enough margin in your family context so that you can avoid poor choices due to busyness. “If the devil can’t make you bad, he’ll make you busy”.
- Lead with the Eternal Perspective in mind
Be intentional about discipleship. When you’re leading from the eternal perspective, you will parent (and live) differently.
