Psalm 127:3 (NIV) Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them…
“Good parents don’t always produce good kids. Parents should constantly be asking themselves where they get a set of values that tell them whether they have “good” kids or not. I’m afraid that many good parents live with long-term feelings of failure because their children have not turned out the way they hoped.”
- Parenting by Paul David Tripp
In this episode of the Parenting podcast, we discuss how our primary responsibility as parents is to aim our children in the direction of Jesus. We'll also take a look at our identity as parents and some traps we can fall into when we try to get our identity from our kids.
