At the edge of the Promised Land, Moses made it clear that fathers and grandfathers needed to get in the game with their sons.
Talking Points:
- Moses got pretty serious with the fathers and grandfathers before releasing them into the Promised Land. He gave them one final pep talk. Deuteronomy 6:4-8
- He reminded them to love God with their whole hearts and commit to talking regularly to their kids about God’s commandments, like wearing your emotions “on your sleeves”.
- You don’t have to be a Bible scholar to be qualified for this as a dad. Use the resources on the men’s page, especially the series Proverbs for Men and Boys.
Discussion:
- Initial reactions to this topic? What jumped out at you?
- What kind of a relationship did you have with your dad?
- Did your dad ever disciple you? If so, how? If not, what would it have meant to you?
- Do you feel qualified to disciple your kids? Explain.
- Preview Proverbs for Men and Boys. Make a commitment to starting this series with your son this week.
