Convergence: Parenting, Episode Two

This week’s lesson moved fast, so I wanted to put some notes up here in case you missed any of this on Sunday.

Here are the six areas of character that John Townsend says we need to pass on to our kids:

  1. Relationship – relationship is the best place to go when we are in need
  2. Responsibility – at age appropriate time, kids learn “my life is my problem”
  3. Reality – dealing in healthy ways with mistakes, failure and sin
  4. Competence – learning what passion and skill they have to contribute
  5. Morality – learning to make wise and ethical choices
  6. Worship – teaching and modeling dependence on God

There you go. I hope that’s helpful.
