Consider Christian education If Christian education is used as a tool to strengthen God's Word in the hearts of your children, it is a good thing For you that send your kids to a public school, you have to work harder to protect their heart Beware of sending your kids to a Christian school and then undermining their foundation by sending them to a secular university that is an expert in attacking, weakening, and altering their upbringing We want to hear from you: Do you have any specific ways you are teaching your children the Bible? Do you have any wisdom sayings that we can share with our audience?

Christian Womanhood It involves cultivating selflessness She is warm Safe and trustworthy v. 11-12 Good - agreeable, pleasant, better (root is joyful and delightful) Illustration “You're better than that” Don't allow issues to turn you into a hard, cold, sarcastic, eye-rolling wife) Financially - no need of spoil Personally - does good and not evil Be careful that the familiar does not become an irritation Deeply - “good and not evil” Can He share? When and how he wants to share? Romantically - intimately - no need of spoil, good and not evil Beware of hurts, bitterness, frustrations, struggles Talk them out, work it out, get help-out Don't fizzle; make it sizzle She is wise Think - every time Be kind - every time Psalm 19:14 Psalm 141:3 Eph. 4:32 She wants him to win v. 23 Follow him - treat him like the leader God made him to be Eph 5:22-24 Promote him - with reverence and awe Eph 5:33 Be counter cultural Conclusion: Pro 31:28-31 So many women seek validation, praise, honor, status They want the priceless label, but sell themselves short
What does Biblical Womanhood Look Like? Consider the word virtuous It involves cultivating strength Virtuous is Strong in purity, chastity, and righteousness Modern dictionaries get it all wrong One strives to be virtuous to appear to be better than others Bible- it doesn't make you better but priceless Dictionaries: Collins - to do what is expected and feeling pleased with themselves, perhaps too pleased Cambridge - Thinks oneself morally better than others, only does good so he can feel virtuous Oxford - behaving in a very good or moral way, irreproachable, claiming to behave better or have a higher moral standard than others. Modern philosophies get it wrong: A strong woman follows her heart The heart is deceitful and desperately wicked She shows her authentic self In my flesh dwells no good thing She cultivates her own interests Be kindly affectioned one to another . . . in honor preferring She is self-aware and continually growing into herself For me to live is Christ and to die is gain She stands up for herself and and is not afraid to share her thoughts and ideas regardless of what others think She speaks her heart and mind Whoso keeps his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from trouble Proverbs 21:23 Same word for going into battle Root is to twist, writhe, twirl, dance The Virtuous woman is strong She is prepared for battle She cha-cha-chas her way through her busy days Cf. Ephesians 6 She is strong 6:10 She is ready for battle 6:11 She is prepared for whatever comes her way 6:13 It involves cultivating a strong relationship with God v. 30 A woman who fears the Lord Can't get enough of God Is in awe of God Will be praised
The focus in this passage is the Father's love. The example that the author of Hebrews uses is the personal relationship we have with God. We are God's children, His sons and daughters. And because of that relationship, God disciplines us. And again, we are to take the example set by our Heavenly Father in providing discipline for our kids.
Dave and Bethlie's youngest child, Charity Young, joins them for this episode. As 15 year old young lady, how did God speak to Charity recently when she read through Proverbs 31? Listen, and enjoy!
When it comes to the topic of discipline, we realize that we are a family under construction. There are many different views and approaches to discipline. Some views might tend to be more controversial than others. The thing that we all share in common, those of you that are parents, is that the biggest heartaches and heartbreaks we've ever experienced in our lives is over our kids. And when it comes to the topic of disciplining our kids, we often feel like failures, or we just don't know what to do. Well, the Bible gives us a framework, a construction plan, a blueprint to how we can accomplish the goal of disciplining our kids and the next generation. And today we are going to look at that framework by looking at Hebrews, chapter 12.
Part 3 We want our children to have good appetites. Appetites for eternal things over earthly things God's Word God' Love Diligence Faithfulness Character Integrity Family We want our children to be successful adults Prepared All ready going that way before they get there Parenting is intended to teach our teens to parent themselves Know where you are taking your kids Give them opportunities to prove they are getting there
We are going to look at an amazing story in Matthew chapter 15. It is a story about the incredible faith and prayer of a mother. It illustrates the power of praying parents and grandparents. And her faith will serve as an example to us to make use of the power tool of prayer for our families.
Part 2 The goals we should have according to the verse We want our children to have good behavior. This idea shows up especially in the early chapters Listen to our commands Heed our laws Do right and pursue wisdom Teach them to obey Expectation Communication Follow-through Correction (Proverbs 13:24, 19:18, 22:15, 23:13-14, 29:15,17)
We Must Emphasize Training Proverbs 22:6 Recap of our study through Proverbs: Chapters 1-9 are about his training of his own son. Chapters 10-31 contain truth about areas we should emphasize. 5 Reasons It Is Right To Emphasize Training It is a word from Solomon, - known for His God-given wisdom. It is the Word of God by the Holy Spirit and it is therefore profitable for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. It is based on the truth of sowing and reaping. It is simply a summary of God's plan for the home and family. It makes sense. The Choices We Have As Parents To train or not to train To teach or not to teach To correct or not to correct To love or not to love To impart wisdom or to leave to folly To prepare for adulthood or to relegate to failure To succeed or to fail
We must emphasize the dangers of alcohol We understand this is a debated matter All of us agree that drunkenness is wrong Drunkenness is when alcohol is altering our God given faculties It controls our emotions It controls our reactions 2. We understand that this is a problem area 3. We believe it is an easy matter All of us agree that we are wrong when alcohol is damaging our life and the lives of those around us Solomon's main point over and over again is that alcohol is dangerous and should be avoided It does much damage One of the leading causes of preventable death in the USA (National institute on alcohol) 1/3 of fatal vehicle accidents were alcohol related 174 million abuse alcohol/only 9 million abuse opiods Financially It is expensive It is costly in how it affects work and health and relationships and so forth 4. We must understand that Solomon is warning us about these dangers: What it does Proverbs 23:29 Also 20:1 It mocks It rages It deceives and destroys wisdom How it happens Proverbs 23:30-31 Linger Search Look Where it leads Proverbs 23:32-35 It bites and stings It affects thinking and perverts v. 33 It makes you sick v. 34 It leaves you deceived. v. 35 It leads to addiction v. 35 It leads to perverted leadership Proverbs 31:4-5 Where it is acceptable Proverbs 31:6-7 Medicinally 1 Tim 5:23 As parents we must emphasize the dangers of alcohol. Show your children those who have been damaged by it Relationships Car accidents Health failures Stay away from it.
We must continually protect our children from foolish influences. 1) Internet Only when supervised Not just for fun Not just because they're bored Use Gryphon Use Covenant Eyes Frequently check phones and computer history Keept it random Make it a surprise 2) Social Media None is always best How to do it? Get other parents to join you Get your school on board Teach your children to stand alone What to do if you do it? Make it a rite of passage Sign an agreement Write a paper Read a book My Tech-Wise Life Ways your phone is changing you Tiktok - dangerous and damaging Emotionally damaging Relationally damaging Legally damaging Purity damaging Instagram 3) Music Have standards Talk thorugh matters and continually offer biblical wisdom No one can handle a diet of unBiblical thinking communciated via music 4) Movies Be careful Always evaluate a movie prior to watching it Wait for it to be available via Vidangel or on Clearplay Talk about reasons and teach truths
One thing anyone who works with children must never give up
In this episode, Dave and Bethlie discuss the importance of godly and positive influences in the family. They emphasize the need to shield children and ourselves from negative, harmful influences. Proverbs 13:20 We must emphasize the blessings and dangers of influence. Proverbs 1:11-19 Proverbs 9:6 The best influences are those that impart righteousness and wisdom.

Luke Chapter One - In the lives of Zacharias and Elizabeth we learn some valuable lessons for parenting today. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/simpletruth/message
There is something powerful about modeling. And when we think about our core value, it is vitally important that we seek to model The Lord Jesus to our world.
What Joshua says is so powerful, many have etched his words and displayed them in their homes: “As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” Parents, families, in order to be a biblical family in our modern world, we have to realize it is our house, and therefore our choice.
When it comes to parenting, you can do everything right, follow all the right instructions, which in itself is an impossibility, but even in the perfect environment there is no guarantee that your kids will turn out the way you want. Every kid is different and parenting them has to be different. There is no formula that guarantees a certain outcome. As a result, we are all dependent on God to fill in the gaps of our failures.
In today's ever-changing world, families are facing new challenges and pressures that can threaten to weaken their foundations. How do families develop strong foundations that can withstand the test of time? Drawing on the importance of family in the Bible, this podcast on family offers practical advice for building a strong, godly family. In this episode, Pastor Scott and a variety of special guests will explore how godly parents can help pass on the legacy of faith to the next generation in this fallen, seemingly evil, world.
What is the balance of discipline and grace? Pastor Lee digs into this topic as we continue talking about godly parenting.
If you have growing children or planning to have one this episode is especially made for you You can find me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jeanith.padilla/ I would love to connect with you.
