  • Summary

  • The prevailing culture of our day encourages young people to kick against authority rather than honor their parents. Yet even without the “help” of outside influences, it’s in the heart of every child to desire their own way, and as they enter their teens years, to think they know better than their dad and mom. Such attitudes are in direct rebellion to God’s command: “‘Honor your father and mother,’ which is the first commandment with promise: ‘that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth’” (Eph. 6:2–3).

    In this podcast, Scott Brown, Jason Dohm, and Robert Bosley explain that honoring one’s parents is square one in learning to live under authority. It’s a key testing ground for honoring God. Their advice to parents: Model honor to your children; maintain parental authority; affirm what is commendable in your kids; and do not exasperate them. Their advice to children: Recognize that God’s given you the parents you have and wholeheartedly honor them, knowing that such obedience is the greatest leverage point for your long-term success (Eph. 6:3).
