  • Do faith together

    If you're reading this or listening on the podcast, I imagine you've clicked here because you can relate to the title of this post. I don't think this is an encouragement really, but let me just say you're not alone. There are most definitely days when I want to pull my 'Christian parent' hair out, and you already know why... My kids don't want to go to Church, and they're struggling to catch Jesus for themselves. ⁠https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/hikaru

  • The kid just doesn't care about Jesus
    Sep 14 2023

    Assuming you agree that salvation is the work of the Holy Spirit, you'd probably feel comfortable with the idea that although you can take a child to Church, you can't make them love Jesus.

    I became a Christian when I was 14, and I remember a strong lead from the Holy Spirit to jump out of my seat and accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. I was bought up in a Christian home, so there was a cultural understanding, but in the end, I gave my life to Jesus without any parents or siblings alongside me. 

    Interestingly, I have siblings who grew up in the same home, but not all of them felt stirred towards becoming a Christian in a significant enough way for the decision to stick. I never spoke to my parents about it, but as a parent myself, I'm learning how different your children can be. I chose a life lived for Jesus, but not everyone does, and what are my wife and I supposed to do? Threaten our kids to make them want God?

    You know that doesn't work.
