In this sermon, Pastor Chris draws lessons on parenting from the failures of King David with his sons Amnon, Absalom, and Adonijah. David often avoided discipline, misplaced priorities, and modeled inconsistency, which led to heartbreak in his family. By contrast, biblical parenting requires vision—aiming our children toward Christ—along with clear instruction, consistent discipline, wise priorities, and intentional influence. Parents are called to invest time, sacrifice comfort, and point their kids toward obedience to God, while also admitting their own mistakes. The message challenges families to be proactive, not passive, in raising children who love and follow Jesus, and calls the whole church community to support the next generation with influence, encouragement, and prayer.
