We’ve
been using the book, “Making Brothers and Sisters Your Best Friends” by Sarah,
Steven and Grace Mally. These kids have accumulated a lot of wisdom
at an early age. Their web page is brothersandsisters.net

Training Children
This
section is helpful to Dad. Our society
tends to view children as a burden rather than a blessing. This section helps Dad remember that God and
the world view things differently.
God Wants Godly Offspring:
Gen 1:28 Adam/Eve – Be fruitful and multiply
Gen 9:1 Noah – Be fruitful and multiply
Gen 17:6 Abraham will be fruitful
Children Are a Blessing: (Why do we consider them a burden today?)
Ruth 4:13-17 Ruth and Naomi – the child was their blessing
1 Samuel 1 Hannah wanted a child and dedicated him to the
Lord
Do you
know of any cases in the Bible where a child was a curse?
Teaching, Guiding, Training, Sheltering: (God’s directive to parents)
Duet 6:1-9 Very
specific that parents are to instill Biblical teaching into children.
Joshua 22:26-29 They built an
altar as a memorial for generations to come
Prov 22:6 Train up a child in the
way he should go
Prov 4:14-15, Luke 11:4, 1 Thes 5:21-22 – All say to AVOID
evil
James
4:7, 2 Tim 2:22 – Resist the devil
