Lies, Myths, & Misconceptions in Christian Parenting

Today we are talking about lies, myths and misconceptions that Christian parents believe.

When we’re thinking multigenerational and God’s greater story, then you are thinking you are a part of something so much bigger than us. We need to want to steward our time here well. The best place you can be is home with your kids teaching them and showing them the love of Christ. A lie people believe is that they put ambition against the home. They say if you are an ambitious person then it is going to be very hard to invest in your home. This is not true. If you want something accomplished on a big vision scale, give it to a big vision person. We know many Godly men who have accomplished a lot and are very successful, but their first focus was their kids at home. Discipleship and multi-generational faithfulness begins at home.

In this Information Age, it is so critical to filter cultural messages through the lens of biblical truth. We can do this by knowing the truth, because recognizing what’s not truth is impossible without knowing what is truth. Spending time in God’s Word and absorbing His truth by the power of His Spirit enables us to identify the world’s lies, about parenting and so much more!
