by Peter Lindstrom Comments (0) 12 Minutes Read 2193 Views (0)

As a father and husband trying to lead his family, what does it mean to fear the Lord? To fear the Lord may sound archaic and perhaps unimportant. After all, don’t we just want our children to love God…and not fear Him? Shouldn’t our motto be, “No fear taught here?” For a healthy family, the fear of the Lord is essential. To fear the Lord according to the Bible has multiple meanings depending on the context. And the Scripture context I have in mind is Acts 9. So the church throughout … Read More →

(Changing Negative Questions into Transforming Ones) Fathers who don’t lead in family worship or who have occasional struggles doing it (including me) may be asking the wrong questions. The Bible informs you to be wise in all you do. This includes both the answers of life and the questions you have about life. Do you ever have dumb questions that lead to dumb answers? I know I do. As Christian fathers, you need to seek wisdom. And this includes asking good questions. Now we … Read More →
