“It is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” —George Washington, 1789

The most important earthly work we do in this life is raise our children. Everything else we do, except for the worship of God, is subordinate to this end, and even the worship of God includes it. Christian parents must recognize this. It does not matter how successful you are, how much you accomplish in work or ministry, how much wealth you accumulate, how many public accolades you get, how much fame you attain —  if your children turn against you and/or turn away from the Lord, it’s all for naught. What good would it do to have millions of dollars in middle age or in your later years, if your children hate you or hate the Lord? What good would a mountain house or lake house be if your kids are estranged from you or from Jesus? What good is a family vacation if your family ends up spiritually fractured? Obviously, in God’s providence, there are hard situations. I’m not trying to make Christian parents with apostate children feel worse than they already do. Some cases of children who grew up in Christian homes and later apostatized are tough because it can *look* like the parents did everything right. But I’m not concerned here with those difficult cases. I’m much more concerned with helping young Christian parents and parents-to-be focus on the task at hand so they can do it well and experience the full blessings of God’s multi-generational covenant. Here’s what’s frustrating: Many Christian parents do not take their parental responsibilities all that seriously. And many churches do not help them take those responsibilities seriously. The results speak for themselves: all too many children raised in Christian homes are lost to the world. Given the reality that having apostate children is perhaps the greatest trial any Christian can deal with, it’s shocking that so many churches give so little time and energy to training parents how to raise their children biblically. Perhaps no other issue (other than marriage, which is equally important in this way) factors into our earthly happiness than our relationship with our children. “Once you are a parent, you can never be happier than your least happy child,” as the old saying goes. But how much teaching do most Christian parents get in their churches about the promises God makes to parents? How much teaching do they get on covenant succession? How much instruction is there about the multi-generational nature of God’s covenant? How much teaching do parents get concerning what it means to raise children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord? Or what the Bible says about education and discipline? Or inheritance? The stakes are so high, yet much of the church seems to invest so little. Certainly a great deal of earthly joy is lost because so many Christians parents simply don’t know what they are doing. So much kingdom growth is lost, since when we lose our children to the world, the aim of creating Christian culture and civilization is made impossible. And of course, souls are lost through parental neglect. In general, Christian parents need to be more diligent and more sacrificial. They need to be more conscientious when it comes to making decisions about discipline and education. And pastors and church leadership need to make teaching and preaching on wise and faithful parenting a priority. Parenting cannot be outsourced – God holds parents (especially fathers) responsible for how they nurture and train their children, and no one can take this task off their plate. But churches (especially pastors) have a responsibility to help parents as they undertake this massive work.

You might be dead this time tomorrow. Live like it.

O Lord, show Thy mercy upon us. And grant us Thy salvation. O Lord, save them that rule. And mercifully hear us when we call upon Thee. Endure Thy ministers with righteousness. And make Thy chosen people joyful. O Lord, save Thy people. And bless Thine inheritance. Give peace in our time, O Lord. Because there is none other that fighteth for us, but only You, O God. O God, make clean our hearts within us. And take not Thy Holy Spirit from us.

Christians should not want non-Christians to serve in public office. Christians should want godly Christian men to serve in public office.

I love my nation and want it to be Christian.

I love only that which they defend.” — Faramir “A real soldier does not fight because he has something that he hates in front of him. He fights because he has something that he loves behind his back.” — Chesterton

It shouldn’t be controversial for Christians to say that we don’t want mosques, temples, or synagogues in America, not because we hate anyone, but because we love truth and want all people to come to the knowledge of it. Every human being is made in God’s image, and we wish none harm. But there is only one name under heaven by which we must be saved: Jesus Christ. No one comes to the Father except through the Son.

The joy of the LORD is your strength.

Not just biblically allowed; biblically *required.* Love for God and neighbor means you must resist the spread of public idolatry that dishonors the Lord and harms people. Half the Old Testament was written to rebuke God’s people for allowing and participating in such things.

A lot of people would die for Christ. But would you suffer for Christ? Would you risk being imprisoned for Christ?

We will continue to cause “such damage” until the entire nation is Christian.

We are all Christian nationalists now. 🇺🇸 #WeAreCharlieKirk
