25-153 Raising Kids in a Godless Culture

There’s no doubt about it—we are raising our children in a culture that no longer values what is holy. The voices surrounding them are loud, persuasive, and relentless. But God hasn’t called us to panic—He’s called us to prepare. Our children were born for such a time as this, and we’ve been entrusted with their training for the days they are living in.

Our springboard for today’s discussion is:"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind..." — Romans 12:2

The enemy is working overtime to shape the minds of this generation—through media, education, social pressures, and ideologies that stand in direct opposition to truth. But while the world is discipling our children with confusion, God is calling us to disciple them with clarity.

This isn’t about fear—it’s about foundation. As parents, we must be intentional about what our children hear, see, and believe. That means:

* Speaking Scripture over their identity before the world assigns them one.

* Guarding their hearts without suffocating their growth.

* Modeling what it means to live set apart—because they won’t rise above what they observe in us.

Your home is a spiritual training ground. Every mealtime, every car ride, every bedtime conversation is an opportunity to plant seeds of truth and courage. You are not just raising sons and daughters—you are raising kingdom warriors.

And here’s the truth: your kids don’t need a perfect parent. They need a present one—one who listens to God’s voice and leads from that place of confidence.

Question of the Day:What small, consistent step can you take this week to help your child think biblically in a worldly culture?

Mini Call to Action:Identify one area of influence in your child’s life—media, friends, school—and pray over it intentionally this week. Ask the Lord for wisdom and boldness to lead.

Let’s Pray:Father, give us eyes to see and ears to hear what You are saying over our children. Strengthen us to raise them with boldness, love, and unwavering truth. Teach us to stand firm—not in fear—but in faith. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Let’s Get To Work!The world may be loud—but the voice of God in your home can be louder.
