ARE YOU READY TO DEFEND YOUR FAITH
Manage episode 346190016 series 3412504
.but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, having a good conscience, so that, when you are slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame. - 1 Peter 3:15-16 (ESV)
Nobody makes a better lawyer than a teenager. Upon hitting puberty, most kids seem to become gifted with the ability to argue like the most promising of attorneys. They always have a reason for the chore that wasn’t done, the curfew that was broken, or the rule that bent. While parents can laugh about it—or cry!—during those tough, transitional years, there’s actually a solid lesson to be learned from their example.
Our kids are almost always ready to give a defense for their decisions or mistakes—but are we ready to give as passionate a defense for our faith?
