Lindsay Clancy & Our Moral Swamp

How can Christian parents raise children with a clear biblical foundation in a culture that is increasingly confused about right and wrong? When the values surrounding our families seem far removed from God's Word, it can be tempting to respond with fear or discouragement.

In this episode of Family Vision, Amy Rienow reflects on Joshua's declaration, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." Using a difficult contemporary case as a starting point, Amy contrasts a culture in which people determine right and wrong for themselves with the biblical call to make God and His Word central in our homes. She encourages parents to focus on what they can influence—their own family culture, relationships, prayer, discipleship, and daily commitment to following Christ.

What You'll Learn in This Episode:

- Why cultural confusion about right and wrong should drive Christian families back to God's Word

- What the book of Judges teaches about the danger of everyone doing what is right in their own eyes

- Why parents cannot control the surrounding culture but can intentionally shape the culture of their home
