The Lord has ordained the family to be the institution
where children are to be trained in the knowledge of God. Parents are a
child's first and most influential teachers. Their actions and words
have a profound impact on their children's spiritual development. It can
shape and mold a child's character, values, and worldview. As parents,
we have the unique opportunity to be the spiritual leaders for our
children. We are the ones who can teach them about God, His love for us,
and His plan for us, and that His word is the authority in our lives.
Train up a child in the way that he should go; when he is old he
will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6
