To “tread” means to walk in a specified way. Tread Boldly.
As a parent, especially of teens, you may consider treading carefully as the best way to handle hormones and cold shoulders and uncomfortable conversations. But, as you’ll hear Josh explain; you are called to tread boldly.
This is a special episode as our very own Josh Glaser releases his first book today - “Treading Boldly through a Pornographic World: A Field Guide for Parents.”
Josh and co-author, Daniel Weiss, lay out the groundwork for you to be better equipped in our digitally saturated culture. Don’t shy away from this one.
This is a unique opportunity to hear Josh’s heart and advice before reading the book. What’s one way to tread boldly today? “Focus on what you are FOR, not against.”
Listen in.
Highlights:
Backward Vision: “Don’t have sex until you’re married. Don’t look at pornography.” That’s backward vision. Look forward.
Don’t focus on the sin. Focus on the goal.
Kids who have had premarital sex need a vision that is more robust than how they did sexually in one given moment or season.
Homework:
Forming a Family Vision:
- Mark your Starting Point as right here, right now. Understand it can and will travel with you.
- Consider falls or setbacks as opportunities to grow NOT failures of the goal.
- Let the focus be on what you are FOR versus what you are against.
- Focus on Jesus, not your sin or performance.
