Parenting on Purpose

Partnering with Parents

Sara Martin - Youth Ministry Director & Gabby Regul - Children’s Ministry Director


Matthew 7:24-27, is where we hear the parable of two foundations. It reads, “Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 


The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock. 


But everyone who hears these words of mine and doesn’t act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 


The rain fell, the rivers rose, the winds blew and pounded that house, and it collapsed. It collapsed with a great crash.”


THE WORK YOU ARE DOING IS NOT WORTHLESS EVEN IF YOUR CHILD IS NOT WALKING WITH JESUS.


TRUST IS KEY


BE OPEN & HONEST


PARTNER WITH THE CHURCH


Your kid's spiritual growth and questions should stir you to grow and answer those questions through your own personal devotional time

3 John 4:I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.


Duet. 6:6-7: These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. 7 Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.


Proverbs 1:8:Listen, my son, to your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.


Joel 1:3:Tell it to your children, and let your children tell it to their children, and their children to the next generation.


Ephesians 6:4:Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.


Psalm 78:4-6: We will not hide them from their descendants;

    we will tell the next generation

the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord,

    his power, and the wonders he has done.

He decreed statutes for Jacob

    and established the law in Israel,

which he commanded our ancestors

    to teach their children,

so the next generation would know them,

    even the children yet to be born,

    and they in turn would tell their children.


This principle that you are your children’s spiritual teacher, that I want to volunteer in your family ministries is all  bound up in a gospel-preaching local church involvement. 


The best thing you can do for your child’s soul is to become actively involved in a gospel-preaching, gospel-living, church community.


5 separate surveys of more than 22,000 adults and 2,000 teenagers it was found that 20% of the respondents had maintained a level of spiritual activity consistent with their High School experience.


50% of young adults who attended church every week when they were teens did not attend church by the time they were 29. 


Up to 50% of young people who did not stick with their face faith once they reached College.


Families should be gospel-centered



Challenge: Take some time and examine your lives this week.
