Abraham serves as an example of walking by faith. When God told Abraham to go from the only home he ever knew Abraham went. Sometimes we Christians have to have all the details and a clear road map before we are ready to step out in faith.

In God's great design for the family, he gave children parents to watch over, protect, guide, and train them in the way they should go.

Obedience to this command takes on different forms as ages and stages of life begin to change. This week Jon sits down with his father and discusses what this looks like at various points of life.
