Today we discuss this issue.

Detest

As Christian parents we should be teaching our kids about moral right and wrong from an early age. We should also be teaching them to be okay with being detested for actually doing what’s right or having a moral standard at all. It will give them grit. 

Proverbs 29:17 tells us that,  “the wicked detest the upright.” Even Jesus was detested for being righteous.

When our kids are taught, and we regularly live out, a good example that being righteous and upright can sometimes provoke persecution, even being detested by wicked people, our kids will be less likely to cower to their wicked ways because of the example and grit you instill in them at a young age.
