The opportunity to raise our children well is brief. How can parents best use this limited time? Drawing on the wisdom of Proverbs 22, Alistair Begg points to Scripture’s instruction to “train up a child in the way he should go”—not the way he would go if left to his own sinful inclinations. As parents, our task is to guide our children through loving discipline. By learning at home the truth of biblical principles, that child will know to whom he belongs for eternity.

 

Teach Your Children Well, Part One

 

Alistair Begg has been in pastoral ministry since 1975.

In 1983, he became the senior pastor at Parkside Church near Cleveland, Ohio. He has written several books and is heard daily and weekly on the radio program, Truth For Life. The teaching on Truth For Life stems from the week by week Bible teaching at Parkside Church. He and his wife, Susan, were married in 1975 and they have three grown children.
