Building Strong Families | Part 3 | Every Child’s Greatest Need

Every child—and every person—has a fundamental need to know and believe that God loves them unconditionally. This truth is the foundation for overcoming the fears that grip humanity. God's love is based on His character, not based on our actions.In part three of “Building Strong Families,” Duane Sheriff teaches how unconditional love transforms families and sets children free from fear, insecurity, and the need for approval. He identifies four primary fears that often shape children’s lives—the fear of faces (people and rejection), fear of fences (obstacles and hardship), fear of failure, and fear of foes (spiritual enemies)—and explains how God’s love conquers each one.Parents and grandparents prepare children for life's challenges by teaching them to forgive themselves when they make mistakes and training them to understand the spiritual battles they face. When we truly grasp the depth of God’s love, we realize nothing we do can change how much He loves us. Perfect love casts out all fear.
