It is so difficult to navigate how to discipline in a world where our Bible and our culture are saying two different things. It can be easy to view scripture from the lens of culture or pick and choose what we want to believe out of the Bible based on what the current parenting movement is saying. But in order to read the Bible well, we can’t read it through the lens of 21st century thinking, but rather through how it would have been understood for centuries. Today we unpack a little bit about what the theologians believe the Bible says about discipline because most of us don’t know the Greek/Hebrew or don’t understand the culture at the time the passage was written. We must learn to read the Bible with these things in mind and today we unpack the concept of discipline through the expertise of those who’s job is to interpret scripture. Let’s dig in!

Love,

Brittany
