Raising Children
Scripture and encouragement for intentionally raising children in the Lord.
Selected Sub-Tab
Matthew 19:14
"Jesus said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."
Jesus welcomes children and warns against hindering them. Parents are called to facilitate, not obstruct, a child's approach to Him. In the press of daily demands or in seasons of family tension, this verse recenters the priority: making space for children to encounter Christ is essential work.
