Raising Good Kids in Today’s World

About 4,000 years ago, there lived a man in the land of Canaan, in what today is the nation of Israel. His name was Lot and he was the nephew of Abraham. He had a wife and family, a place of prominence in society, and had grown quite wealthy. You might say he was successful. But then, something went terribly wrong. Lot lived in the ancient city of Sodom. Sodom and its sister city Gomorrah were judged and destroyed by God for their decadence and corruption. But this story is not just of the downfall of a sinful city, but the tragic collapse of a family as well. Lot escaped with his life, but his family paid a dear price. What can we learn from the story of Lot? How does this apply to us, in a world of increasing evil? How can we expect to guide our family, our children, in our society today? So, how can we raise good kids today? I’ll be right back with the answer.
