• Rebellion is continued defiance or passive indifference toward God, his moral standards, or people God put in authority in a child’s life.

Why Do Christian Kids Rebel?
• Your Christian Kid isn’t Christian after all
• Your Christian Kid is Confused
• Your Christian Kid is in Bondage to Sin

— Genesis 4:7

What is bondage?
• Deep rooted sin, that is engrained in lifestyle, and becomes difficult to resist.

How Does this Happen?
• Attacks Happen
• Defenses Weaken
• Compromise Occurs
• Repentance is Ignored

What can we do?
• Leverage Your Position
• Create an Atmosphere Where it’s Okay to Come Clean
• Normalize Confession and Repentance
• Widen Your Circle

— How can I give you up? How can I surrender you? My heart is turned over within Me, All My compassions are poured. (Paraphrase of Hosea 11:8)
