Previously, we discussed why the idea of having children has lost its luster among today’s young people. Today, we’ll discuss some things we can do about it.
The Value of Child-Rearing
If having children is ever going to be as important to our kids as it’s always been to God, we’ll have to be more intentional when raising them with a biblical worldview. Surrounding them with other families that are doing the same thing is a good start.
Parenting should be a joy, not a burden. Our scriptural directive is to nurture a lovingly-disciplined family atmosphere in our home. More than that, however, our kids need to see other lovingly-disciplined homes as well. Unfortunately, this beautiful, and God-ordained family model is becoming more uncommon in these postmodern days. Consequently, Romans 12: 2 is becoming increasingly relevant.
