Eschatological Parenting
As Micah and Cody get older and older I find myself being drawn more and more to parenting resources. This is an excellent post on what it means to parent in light of eternity. Here’s an excerpt.
Those of you who are parents probably grow weary and discouraged sometimes. I know I do. It seems as though you’re not “getting through” sometimes, that your children aren’t responding the way you thought they would. Keep hugging. Keep kissing. Keep chastising. Keep teaching. This is a long-term project. You’ve got a long-term project in front of you. And there’s a lot at stake.
After all, parenting isn’t about behavior modification. It’s about Christian eschatology.
The rest of the post is a short read and can be found here.
