Raising Soldiers In Christ - Family Series

Welcome to Grove Hill Church, where we come together to explore and embrace the teachings of Christ. In today's episode of our Family Series, titled "Raising Soldiers In Christ," we delve into the crucial topic of training children in the ways of the Lord. Our speaker encourages parents to start discussing modesty and scripture with their daughters from a young age, emphasizing the need for followers of Christ to stand out from the world.

But that's not all - we also tackle the subject of physical discipline, specifically when and how it can be used. Our speaker shares their personal reflections and offers practical examples, reminding us of the importance of guidance and discipline in order to raise god-fearing adults. We'll also explore how the responsibility of training children lies with parents, not just the church, and the impact of neglecting to study scripture ourselves.

Join us as we learn about the significance of teaching children to pray, understand God's word, and listen for His voice. Our ultimate goal? To raise soldiers for Christ who can face spiritual battles with unwavering faith. So, grab your headphones and get ready for an insightful and thought-provoking episode of the Grove Hill Church podcast. Let's begin our journey of raising soldiers in Christ.
