Is your marriage weaker than you want it to be? It doesn’t have to stay that way. Change is possible, and a strong marriage is one of the most powerful protections your kids will ever have. In these verses, a father warns his son that there are only two paths in life, and some people will actively try to pull him onto the wrong one. Kids need to know that before they face it.
In this episode, you’ll learn how to teach Proverbs 4:14–17 to your children, so they can recognize the wicked path, avoid it before they ever step on, and know they can always come to Mom and Dad for help.
In this episode:
✅ A path is a direction in life, and there are only two: the righteous and the wicked
✅ The lie of a “neutral” third path that’s neither good nor evil
✅ How evil starts with one step onto the path and then grows into participation
✅ Why the best strategy is to avoid situations that could lead to evil
✅ Letting your kids know they can always share anything with you
✅ The great illusion: sin promises freedom but brings slavery
✅ Why the wicked can’t rest unless they bring others down with them
✅ Peer pressure: some people want you to fall
✅ The “bread and wine” of today: media, Halloween, and time with the wrong people
✅ Choosing wholesome bread and pursuing righteousness as a family
Family discussion questions:
“Why do you think some people want others to stumble with them?”
“Are there any areas, like what we watch, listen to, or who we spend time with, where our family could improve?”
