We are in week 6 which begins a 3 part section on respecting others. Our first stop is teaching respect for authority and parents. There was so much information in this chapter that I'm just going to highlight three main points:
*When we train our children to respect earthly authority, we are training them to respect God.
*When children are young, we lead them by authority, when they grow into teens we lead them influence.
*Character is the outward reflection of the inner man.
It's not too late to teach your children to respect authority. As we move further into this class, I will be sharing some practical ways to many of these foundations that I have posted so far. Thanks for listening. Next week: Respect for Age.
Great advice! Respecting authority and parents is a good thing.
