Tuning the Bow
Psalm 127:4 says, "Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the sons born in one's youth." A skilled warrior knows how to use his arrow, but children can be difficult to teach at times. The focus of this podcast is to equip parents to tune their bow and become skilled warriors as they train their children to go into the world. Join Matthew Wilbanks, youth pastor at First Baptist Church in Pittsburg, TX, and Tim Rose, youth pastor at First Odessa in Odessa, TX, as they discuss family discipleship as the Bible teaches. Guests, jokes, and a deep dive into Scripture can be expected, so get ready to tune your bow!
Tuning the Bow
Sermon on the Mount – Yeses and Nos
"Let your 'yes' be 'yes' and your 'no' be 'no.'" This phrase is spoken frequently when parents talk to their kids, but what are the implications? In this episode, Tim and Matt break down this phrase and other similar phrases to show that God takes delight when we do what we say we will do or do not do what we say we will not do. Simply put, parents must teach and model the fact that our words carry meaning. Listen to how this plays out practically and what parents should do when they break their promises.
Passage – Matthew 5:33-37
