Modern pastor's kids have earned the reputation of graduating high school and becoming the worst kinds of atheists. But Pastor Young's family is a different story. He has served faithfully in the ministry for decades while raising 5 children who today still love and serve the Lord as adults. The natural question is, how'd he do it?

In this episode, Pastor Dave talks about parenting and ministry strategies that will equip the next generation to love God and obey His Word. 

Dave Young is pastor of Westwood Baptist Church in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. To hear more from Pastor Dave, check out the Keeping It Young podcast, where he and his wife talk marriage, family, and ministry life.
