I thought Rebekah Curtis' article was excellent and offered some very good advice. If you don't know what "wokeness" is, Stephen, I can't help but wonder, even just a little, if you're paying any attention to what's going on around you. Anyhow, I agree that helping your child to find a good LCMS church, which he or she can attend weekly, is key since it's important to keep the faith active and vibrant. There are many temptations, after all, and Satan knows a person's weaknesses and I'm sure he wants to exploit them. Kids are precious of all ages and they now live in a world where cultural norms have radically changed (over the years) and some of those "norms" are often pretty much shoved in their faces, even those of the little ones. But our faith can and does make a great difference and so does passing it on. There will be challenges for them but I pray that God will bless and keep these kids their whole lives through. BTW, have to say, I'm so thrilled to see the young people of every race who attend Lutheran schools (grade school to college) as they sing to the glory of God (on Worship Anew which I DVR every Sunday. Hey, I like getting two sermons a day.) :) It's wonderful!!!
