Here is another post by my 7 year old son, David:

I go to church at CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH.

I go to Sunday school. My Mom is my Teacher. It is very fun!

I go to sanctuary. I sing. I go to children’s church …! It is fun! Some times, I stay in sanctuary.

Here is a long list of Bible verses that talk about parenting, child instruction, mothers and fathers. Leave me a comment if I’ve left off your favorite.

Ephesians 6:1-4 ESV Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. (2) “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), (3) “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” (4) Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Proverbs 23:13-14 Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from Sheol.

My oldest son is almost seven and my youngest is almost two. One thing we love to do is ride our bikes. Over the last few weeks, our Indiana weather has been just right. We headed out tonight just after dinner. Twice around the neighborhood and then off to the “adventure way.” That’s Kummer speak for the country road beyond our subdivision. Up one hill and down the next - we’re watching for them to take the soybeans. We look out for mean dogs and friendly cows. Just last week we had a close encounter. We took the one big hill twice tonight. Each time my younger son screams “wee!”

This may be the best hour I’ve had all week. On the “adventure way” we talk about real life. My boys learn to push hard going up that impossible hill. They learn to never back down from a chasing dog. They learn to move over for cars. Most of all they learn that their dad wants to be with them.
