Sermon Introduction
As we have moved through this sermon series on parenting, (Lessons I Think I’ve
Learned as a Parent), for me, each week has been more important than the previous
one. Another way to say that would be to say that we are building toward something
where the best, the most important, comes last.
This is the last week. And such is the case with this week’s topic. If you asked me
what the most important gift a parent could give to a child—even to an older child—my
answer would likely be that of which I speak in today’s sermon.
We go all the way back to Genesis, close to the dawn of the biblical story, for the
biblical foundation of today’s topic. The scene is a father, a mother, and two sons. The
dynamics are not healthy: the father has a favorite and the mother has a favorite. In
fact, this family’s dynamics includes things like cheating and lying and stealing. . . .
Well, you get the picture.
_
And yet, it is in the midst of such realities that we find evidence for what may be the
most powerful gift a parent can give a child. It’s not too much to say that if you’re a
child, and you receive this from your parents, it will help set a positive course for your
life. And if your parent(s) doesn’t /don’t give it to you, it may cause you to embark on
a lifelong search for it.
Join me as we consider this most important theme.
Randy Roberts, Senior Pastor
