Jesus spent three years preparing His disciples to live without His physical presence. He described them as sheep in the midst of wolves. Likewise, preparation is the best protection for kids “living among wolves” in today’s world. Bucky explains how parents can follow Jesus’ template of explanation, example, and experience.

Reciting the Lord’s Prayer doesn’t do anything magical. It does, however, show us what’s important to God. In fact, it’s how Jesus taught His disciples to pray. God still wants to have a conversation with His children today. And using the model in the Lord’s Prayer helps us pray according to God’s agenda, rather than our own.

Everything right, true, and good has been distorted and spoiled by the world. These counterfeits are being sold to our kids as the real thing; and even many Christian kids are buying it. What can Christian families do? Bucky talks about how deception works, and how teaching biblical discernment will guard and guide your kids in truth. (Parenting Series, Part 2 of 3.)

Believers are encouraged to pray throughout the Bible. But in the Sermon on the Mount we see that Jesus expects His followers to pray. So, His instructions not only talk about how and where to pray but the attitude we should have when talking with God. The first step is to get alone and shut the door!

Modern parenting has made a child’s happiness the goal. However, that’s not the purpose of parenting given in the Bible. And since God designed and created the family, He knows the best way for families to function. Parents, the only way to know if you’re hitting the target is to know God’s purpose for parenting. (Parenting Series, Part 1 of 3.)

People respond to Easter in different ways. Some reject, and even attack, the resurrection of Jesus. But you can go to church every week and still have a shortsighted response to Easter. The apostle Paul shows us the everyday advantages of living the resurrection life.
