You're probably checking out this podcast because you are a Christ-follower and you have kids… and you intuitively know that you’ve got a massive job on your hands. But you also see your role as a Christian parent as one of the most amazing privileges given to human beings. You get to fashion human beings into God-saturated, Christ-following, Kingdom-building individuals who make a difference in eternity… and all to the glory and praise of their Creator. And that ain't an easy job. We're here to help. Episodes are conversations about Christian parenting between retired Pastor, Carey Green and his wife of over 33 years, Mindi. They'll discuss what the Bible reveals about raising your children in a way that honors God and connects the child of your heart to the child of God. https://GodFearingKids.com


God Fearing Kids and the Parents Who Raise Them: A Christian parenting podcast

Do you know the difference between a promise and a principle? Did you realize that the Proverbs themselves are all principles, and not promises?

That makes a HUGE difference when it comes to applying the Proverbs to our parenting practices, especially in terms of the outcomes we expect. Listen to understand how to rightly read and apply the Proverbs, and how to rest in God as you do.

071: Parenting principles, not guarantees (PROVERBS SERIES)

The society we live in is obviously confused about manhood and womanhood, and in particular, womanhood has been characterized in many distorted and unhelpful ways. As Christian parents, it's our responsibility and privilege to teach our children - boys and girls - what a real, godly woman is like. Today, we dive into Proverbs 31 to glean some insight into that task.

070: Teach your kids the truth about women (PROVERBS SERIES)

Did you grow up in a home where you were expected to do chores, to help out around the house, or to get a job to help provide for the family in some small way? If so, you may have been given one of life's biggest blessings - a work ethic.

This episode briefly examines the issue of work ethic, why it's important, and how we as Christian parents should be (can be) leading our children into an understanding of how the wise, God-fearing person can bless and benefit their OWN LIFE through doing quality, consistent, diligent work.

069: Your kids need a work ethic (PROVERBS SERIES)

There are really only TWO commands the scriptures give to kids, speciically. They are: "Obey your parents" and "Honor your father and mother."

Here's the kicker (and sometimes the awkward feeling things): We parents are responsible to teach these two commands to our children and to help them recoginze when they are not fulfilling them.

This episode is about that.
