Children are like arrows in the hands of a warrior...but what happens when the warrior is afraid to let go?
In this Father's Day episode of Thinking Out Loud with Pastor-D, Joe and Pastor-D dive into Psalm 127 and discuss what it really means to raise children in a world that seems determined to keep them dependent. Should parents focus on raising happy kids, successful kids, or godly adults? At what point does helping become hindering? And why are so many young adults afraid to leave the nest these days?
Along the way, they will tackle questions about discipline, encouragement, absent fathers, helicopter parenting, children who walk away from God, and whether modern parents have accidentally outsourced their God-given responsibilities to schools, coaches, and even the church.
They also wrestle with some uncomfortable questions:
- Can you do everything "right" and still have a prodigal child?
- What's more damaging: failure or never being allowed to fail?
- Are parents trying too hard to be their children's friends?
- And what exactly happened when Pastor-D's son put "dad strength" to the test?
Plus, a listener question from the kids: Does Jesus have a heavenly mother?
Whether you're a parent, grandparent, future parent, or someone still trying to figure out what your parents were thinking, this episode will challenge the way you view family, faith, and the next generation.
