Teach Your Children to Honor You
If you don't teach your children to honor you, no one else will. Join us for today for this important conversation on family vision. The call to honor parents, which is the fifth commandment in Exodus 20, is an increasingly lost virtue in our world today. Because of our sinful natures, children are not naturally obedient or honoring. Parents need to have an intentional plan to help their children grow in honor. In this episode, Dr. Rob and Amy Rienow equip parents with essential Scriptures and practical approaches for helping children grow in honor. If you are looking for more training and equipping on Christian parenting, be sure to get a copy of Rob and Amy's book, Visionary Parenting.
