Playlist: Childrearing (Bible study series)
John W. Ritenbaugh
Childrearing (Part One)
The Blessing of ChildrenThe family problems predicted for the end times in II Timothy stem from faulty childrearing practices. We must help prepare our children for the Kingdom.
Childrearing (Part Two)
The Elements of GovernmentWe cannot turn the teaching of our children over to others, but instead must train and educate them to become productive citizens in the Kingdom of God.
Childrearing (Part Three)
How To Build CharismaOur children internalize our values; we teach largely by example. If we do not take seriously the responsibility for rearing our children, somebody else will.
Childrearing (Part Four)
Object of Our AffectionChildren do not initiate love but reflect it. If a child does not receive a convincing demonstration of this love, he will not become a conductor of love.
Childrearing (Part Five)
God the Master ChildrearerWe must not leave child rearing to chance, but ought to bend the tender twigs entrusted to us toward God's purpose, training our children in righteousness.
Childrearing (Part Six)
Necessary DisciplineIf we, as Christian parents, could shape and mold the minds of our children early, we could inoculate them against making the same mistakes that we did.
