Children, Obey Your Parents

Pastor Joyce Sanni

 

This enlightening sermon from the Redeemed Christian Church of God Salvation Center delves into the intricate topic of children's obedience from a Godly perspective. It contrasts cultural expectations of obedience in different societies, focusing primarily on the American and Nigerian contexts. The message emphasizes the importance of obedience not being based on fear, but as a loving response to God's teachings and design.

The sermon also highlights the cultural transition and the unique challenges children face today when balancing respect for their parents with societal norms. Parents are reminded of the need for understanding and patience, ensuring they encourage good behavior without damaging the child's self-worth. In essence, obedience is presented as a mutual journey of respect and gratitude that should echo God's structure for family and community life.
