Training Up a Child Means Being Their Example

May 20, 2019 Jrieflin1 Comment

Proverbs 22:6 says "Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he's old he will not depart from it." Many parents love to quote this promise from God's word, but if we are not actively keeping the command of training, then we cannot expect to claim the second part of the [...]
