Pastoring Rural Parents with Dr. Tedd Tripp!
11/11/19 • 69 min
In this episode we discuss...
- pastoring rural parents with our guest author, speaker, and pastor Dr. Tedd Tripp!
- We'll answer these questions:
- What do we need to know about the kids in our church before we can equip the parents in our churches to shepherd them well?
- What is the biggest mistake you see Christian parents making that they might not even be aware of?
- If a young pastor came to you and said, “Dr. Tripp, I’ve noticed that the children in our church are undisciplined. They can’t sit still. They don’t listen to their parents. They don’t respect their teachers.” And I don’t know what to do.” How would you counsel that pastor?
- One of the main arguments you make in the book is that our focus should be on changing hearts rather than behavior. Are you suggesting that we should not try to change the behavior of our children?
- Why would you encourage us to spank our children when a nice time out could get the job done and keep us in the good graces of society?
- How can we encourage the parents in our churches to see their children as a blessing?
- Is it wrong for us to discourage the parents in our churches from having their children so involved in these activities?
- We'll answer these questions:
