What will your children be known for twenty years from now?

Will they be known for kindness or selfishness? Humility or pride? Faithfulness or compromise? Character isn’t formed overnight. It begins to reveal itself even in childhood, and Scripture reminds us that those early patterns matter.

But parenting involves far more than correcting bad behavior. God has entrusted us with preparing the next generation to understand His truth, His world, and their responsibilities before Him. That includes teaching them history, wise stewardship, civic responsibility, and above all, the gospel.

We’ll also consider another important question. As you watch what’s happening in our nation, are you simply frustrated—or are you faithfully praying? Today’s readings challenge us to think about both our homes and our country through the lens of God’s Word.
