Christlike disciplers embody this same heart. They possess an intense Christlike burden for the disciple. They are willing to go the distance and then some, to minister to the disciple that they might be conformed more into the image of Christ.

“Our Living Faith Fellowship is passionate about making disciples and sending leaders, but how sad would it be to miss the mark with those for whom we are most accountable?”

As a father, it is my responsibility to properly teach and inform my children, not my culture or the media. If I entrust my culture, Fox News, CNN, or Facebook with informing my children, I will have failed both them and my stewardship before God.

There will come a time in every parent’s life when you will not be able to control what your children do. They will make their own decisions. They may make decisions that go against what you have taught them. At this point, you must trust in the Lord with all your heart.

As I’ve told my son, “We look forward to sitting in your home someday, with your family, and being able to enjoy that experience.” We will not be there to coach, counsel, or consult. We will be there to laugh, love, listen, and learn!
