In this powerful continuation of the "Cultural Kids or Kids That Count" series, Pastor Jim delivers practical wisdom for raising children who can thrive in today's challenging culture, focusing on four essential gifts parents must give their children: a consistent Christian example that demonstrates integrity and stability (especially through strong marriages), unconditional love that accepts without affirming sin while providing truth and appropriate consequences, biblical wisdom that teaches children to ask "What does the Bible say?" when facing decisions, and genuine encouragement that builds character over performance. Through personal stories, biblical insights, and real-world applications, this message equips parents, grandparents, and anyone involved in shaping young lives with the tools to create resilient, faith-filled children who can navigate an increasingly difficult world while maintaining their Christian values and finding their identity in Christ rather than cultural approval.
