In this sermon Mr. Smith continues his sermon series on the principles of biblical child rearing. He first points out that God does not give us a long detailed list of rules on child rearing. But he points out that there are several verses that give key overall principles about parenting. In this sermon he considers in detail two of these. Starting with Genesis 2:24 he shows us that the most important principle we need to apply is to develop strong marriages that teach our children through the examples set by their parents. He then uses Deut. 6:6-7 to show us how important it is for us to help our children develop qualities of good character.
