In this episode, Pastor Tim Bayly is joined by his son, Joseph (Senior Pastor at
Christ Church in Cincinnati), and son-in-law, Lucas Weeks (College and Administrative Pastor at
Trinity Reformed Church in Bloomington, IN) to discuss parenting.
We often think that our parenting is a failure if we have to resort to authority. That attitude is foolishness and an abandonment of God's rules for parenting. Our fears and modern psychologists have trained us to believe that authority is antithetical to having your child's heart. We must be reminded that if we intend to hold on to our children, obedience to God is the only way.
No one would deny that mothers and fathers have duties regarding their children, but many are willing to dispute that children have duties regarding their parents. Parents ought to serve and love their children, but also children ought to serve and love their parents.
