A redeemed child of God, happy husband, homeschooling dad of nine, and lifelong lover of good books.
Hey Dads,
We have to wear many hats as dads, but what is the one essential responsibility God has given us? In this episode, we’ll see what God said about this question, and I’ll mention some practical tools we can use to carry out that one essential responsibility for our children.
Whether you’ve yet to get started in teaching your children the Bible, or you’ve been doing it for years, this episode probably has at least a few treasures you’ll want to share with your family! –Nathan
“If it keeps me from my Bible it’s not good for me.”
While it’s true that the Bible seems to clearly imply that we can and should read other books, God did not command us to read any other book. God did not promise to bless us for reading any other book. God did not promise to bless us for obeying any other book. And God did not command the fathers of His chosen people to diligently teach their children any other book.
It is unmistakable, what God wanted His people, Israel–specifically, the fathers–to teach their children, to talk about with their children, to place on their own hands and foreheads, to write even on their doorposts and gates.
