A Family of Faith

9/21/2016

 
One weekend earlier this year my youngest son Joshua (7) and my daughter Lily (5) decided to teach me a "Sunday school" lesson. Joshua was the teacher. He decided to teach on faith. I asked him what is faith. He said "Faith is when you believe God even when there is no evidence." Perfectly stated.

It is important that we teach our kids how to get results in life, God's way. That involves teaching them to trust God and use their faith. Niki and I have 2 older sons as well (Jacob 16, Jordan 15) and we have found that it is important to show them all what believing God looks like. Teaching not only involves sharing knowledge and revelation, but it involves being an example. When they see us using our faith, they see how they can use their faith. When they see us get victory, they can know that with God all things are possible. Our lives are one of the strongest testimonies of faith they they can see.

Faith isn't always a clean straight path. Sometimes it can be riddled with disappointments and challenges. But what's important is that we teach them how to trust God in every step of the journey. We have to teach our children to keep walking by faith no matter what the situation looks like. 🙏
