1-on-1 Time

Raising children that walk in the truth does not happen by accident.

Every man hopes that one day they will be able to look at their children and have the sense of accomplishment that 3 John 1:4 speaks of. To instill values and beliefs in your kids, it will take intentional 1-on-1 time that too many dads do not prioritize.

The single greatest thing that your children want is your time. You are their hero and learning from you is what every kid needs. Satan is going to do everything possible to keep your calendar so full that making time will feel impossible. This is where you fight and draw a critical line in the sand that says this is important and it is going to happen.

Sacrifices may need to be made in other areas. While these decisions are never easy, they are critical to the success of your children. Ensure you dedicate regular time to your kids individually. It will prove to be a great opportunity for them to learn from you and for you to learn what makes them the amazing people that they are growing up to be.
