    The Vocation of Parenting: Leon Miles

    The doctrine of Christian vocation is a very important doctrine related to how we live our Christian life. From this doctrine we learn what it means to love our neighbor. God calls each ofus into many vocations, or callings. The vocation of parenthood is only one of many, but it is an important vocation, foundational for all our other vocations. This week we will look at what the Bible says to parents and how God calls us to love our children in all the stages of their lives.Lesson One: What the Bible says about parenting, loving and disciplining your children. In this lesson, we will look at what the Bible says to parents about how God calls them to loveand discipline their children, raising them in the fear and knowledge of the Lord.Lesson Two: Parents, children, and the forgiveness of sinsIn this lesson, we will discuss we can use the forgiveness of sins given to us by God in Christ as a part of our calling as parents, both in how we through Christ forgive our children and how we ask for forgiveness.Lesson Three: Bearing the cross in parenting, the sacrifices parents make. In this lesson, we will talk about what it means to live the theology of the cross in our vocation as parents. We will focus our discussion on defining the theology of the cross, living under grace, and making sacrifices for our children.Lesson Four: Dealing with modern parenting problems, gender, sexuality, and high school culture today.In this lesson, we will discuss some of the modern issues which parents face including gender identity, sexual preference, and the temptations which children face in today’s high schoolculture from a Biblical perspective.
