Shepherding Your Child’s Heart: Age 6 to 12

Thursday, October 16, 2008 by Eric Farr Leave a Comment

The second part in Tedd Tripp’s Shepherding Your Child’s Heart teaching series is…

Shepherding Your Child’s Heart: Age 6 to 12

In this message, Dr. Tripp covers the important issue of addressing the heart over of manipulating the child to get the desired behavior. When our children are very young (say toddler age), they learn right from wrong through training in obedience; however, as they get older, mere obedience is not enough. Continuing to focus simply on obedience will tend to create children that learn to manipulate the system so that they look good and get what they want.

Addressing behavior is easier than shepherding our children’s hearts, though. So Dr. Tripp’s Biblical justification for it and encouragement and examples are a welcome resource.
