Sometimes I Ramble

In our evangelical culture we have raised our kids trying to protect them from the world and the devil. This is a posture of fear. We are so concerned they will be swept away we teach them to be bigger cowards then we are. And they never see a vibrant aggressive faith so they end up being swept away. We bring upon us the thing we fear. It is time we raise kids the world and the devil need to be afraid of. We are on the offense, we have the ball. If we live a vibrant victorious life, taking risks by faith and living like we really believe what we want them to believe, then we have nothing to fear from R rated movies or college philosophy courses. They will know the truth of our doctrine by our lives, they will embrace it, take it to another level, and the world and the devil will need protecting from them.
