God Gave Us His Word
2 Timothy 3
We are living in the information age and being overrun with all the stories, truths, opinions, lies, data, and material that comes to us every day. How do we navigate this sea of information that threatens to drown us? How do we help the generation to follow the way they need to go?
“You may not want to hear this, but raising safe, Christian kids is a spiritual disaster in the making. Your effort will produce shallow faith and wimpy believers. Kids raised in an environment that stresses safety are on track to be Evangelical pushovers.
They will tend to end up either overly critical of the world system to the point where they won't want anything to do with the people in the world system—an idea that comes directly from Satan's playbook. Or, they will become naïve about the world system, which ultimately makes them putty in Satan's hands. He chews up these kinds of people like they are spiritual McNuggets and swallows them whole.
When they are finally confronted with the full thrust of the world system as young adults, few know how to turn it into an opportunity for spiritual impact.” Dr. Tim Kimmel, Grace Based Parenting
