About this episode

I had a wise woman once tell me – it’s always right to do the right thing.  These are words I always try to live by and words I taught my children as they were growing up. Have you noticed that teaching your children to always do the right thing isn’t always so easy? This week I want to look at the spiritual side of

teaching our children obedience. I’m sure you already know that teaching children obedience is exhausting.  What I want to tell you is the benefits of having obedient children are eternal.  As a parent, teaching our children to be obedient or not will determine the trajectory of their lives, for good or for bad. Obedience is the key to their spiritual growth. Listen to this quote from John Piper:  "Parents who do not teach their children to obey prepare them for a life out of step with God's word."  The desire of every believing parent's heart is for our kids to grow up and walk in lock-step with God in their adult lives. This week Tina is unpacking five biblical principles of obedience and giving you five tips to help you step up your spiritual parenting.
