Fulfilling the role of a mother is no easy task. I am more assured of this the longer I am one! As followers of Jesus Christ, we must be grounded in the principles of the Bible as we begin and as we walk through the journey of parenting.

The goal to raise godly children is not simple and it does not begin with our kids. It first begins with us, and we must be rooted in the principles set forth in the Bible. I hope that you’ll be challenged and inspired to develop a vision for eternity when it comes to how to raise godly children. We all need a vision that seeks to instill a God-treasuring, Christ-centered view of life in the hearts of all our little ones.
