A new survey reveals that even Christians do not have a solid understanding of what the Bible teaches. This truth decay cascades down to our society and the result is a nation that does whatever is right in its own eyes. As Christian parents, we need to read the entire Bible. It impacts our entire lives and how we disciple our children.

Today, we want to talk about Charlie Kirk. He was a Christian brother and God used his life to impact history and millions of people around the world. We want to focus on his Christian faith and share some reflections we’ve had since his tragic murder.

There is a reason the battle for the next generation is fierce. There is so much at stake. The enemy knows the danger that an emboldened young generation poses to his dominion of darkness. We are not raising the next generation so that they can waste their lives searching for fleeting pleasures in this world! No, God has called them out of darkness to declare His praises.

While the deceptive allure of the pleasures of this life often clouds our view, we must remember that this life we walk is no stroll through the park; it's a spiritual battlefield. But take heart. God has equipped us to stand fearlessly!

Reading the Bible is not a mere academic pursuit. It's not about memorizing facts. It's a life-altering encounter with the God of the universe. The Bible isn't meant to be simply studied; it is meant to be the very foundation upon which we build our lives as disciples of Jesus.

As we set out on life's true adventure, following our Savior, Jesus, it is critical that we know and love His Word. Why? We will face many trials and hardships along the way. We will hear countless lies and feel strong pressure to conform. In a world filled with so much noise directing us the wrong way, it is critical that we know the voice of our Savior so that we can hear it over everything else.

Jesus has won our freedom and calls us to follow Him as His disciples. It is a hard life that will require us to lay down our desires for His. Yet it is the path to true life, unlike the other one that promises us everything but leads to our destruction. So, let's go! Let's follow the voice of Jesus.

Jesus changes everything. As Christians, we might understand that Jesus came and paid the penalty for our sins and through faith we are forgiven and receive the gift of eternal life. Yet there is more. Jesus is also our Lord and this truth penetrates every area of our lives.
