No matter how well you parent, your kids still have their own decisions to make.

Own Mind

Can we make sure they choose correctly?

Own Mind

Never forget that our kids have their own minds to decide whether to do right or to do wrong. Know that over the course of their childhood, those minds are developing. This is why it is so important to help them acquire healthy appetites in today’s sea of positive and negative stimuli options. Even then there is no guarantee that our kids will follow the narrow path.

When all the smoke clears and our kids come of age they will ultimately be responsible for their own attitudes, appetites, and actions. If they choose the wide path for life and we know we have obeyed God and raised them according to a Biblical worldview- we cannot feel guilty! Ultimately they do, and will, always have minds of their own.

It is a holistic, spiritual and therapeutic approach to healing that provides an atmosphere for learning and a proving ground for the uncompromising time-tested truths of scripture." - John Rosemond, American Columnist
