1:18:17

Are there things you as a Christian parent can do to increase the probability of your children being successful? This sermon goes over ten points. It delves into such topics as teaching God’s law, having fun, discipline, social media, gender reassignment interventions, hypocrisy, truth, hopes, marriage, the millennial kingdom of God, artificial intelligence, the world’s claimed experts, and work. Do children of ‘conservative’ parents tend to have better mental health than children of ‘liberal’ parents? Do scientific studies point to adolescents being happier if they spend less than 3 hours per day on social media? Do teens face new dangers because of being online? What are differences that can help your children and grandchildren be more successful? Dr. Thiel addresses these matters.
