Too many parents today have set their kids’ behavioral bars way too low. I call it don’t rock the boat parenting.

Rock the Boat Parenting

“Don’t push too hard. Don’t expect too much. Let Junior explore and by who and what he truly is.” Well, what he truly is is a sinner just like you and me. But that’s a hard word for many parents today; true as it might be.

We’re not really reading, much less studying the Bible. We all seem to know about God’s grace and mercy. Righteous and holiness, not so much.

In 2 Corinthians 10, Paul encourages us to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. Grace and mercy don’t require this. Righteousness and holiness do. Challenging your kids to do this now may save you heartache later.
