How do we define successful parenting? What metrics do we use to help us gauge whether or not we have been successful in raising our children?  It should not come as a surprise that as Christian parents those metrics might be a little different than what it has become in most American homes. Using Ephesians 6:1-4, this message looks at the dangers of reactive parenting and not developing a spirit-led plan that causes many parents to settle back on some dangerous defaults that can led to long term difficulties. Join us as we look at Paul's definition of "raising up a child in the way they should go". Thank you for listening to our podcast and we would love for you to subscribe to our page and share with others.
