Raising Our Boys To Be Godly Men

 

Yesterday we were blessed to take part in the parenting workshop in Seattle.  We joined forces with the Seattle church and held classes on raising girls, boys, and helping raise our children with special needs.  Karla and I were able to speak about raising our boys to become godly men – what a task!  Clearly, there are NO experts in this field, just plenty of parents who have gone before us.  

What is the real burden of developing boys into men?  Teaching them to have a deep, godly character.  If we can use prayer, the scriptures, and the wisdom we gain from each other, we can use everyday life situations to equip them to make tough choices in an increasingly tough world.  The class was wonderful – we were able to share some insight and biblical principles, then had a very helpful time of group Q & A.  We have a church full of parents dedicated to developing spiritual families!

We provided a handout for parents to take home.  Rather than a “formula for success,” it is a list that shows a study in contrast – it compares the character of worldly men with the character traits of a Christian man.  To print a copy of it, click here!
