July 10 Sermon: Wisdom for Marriage and Family, II

Pastor: Ryan Laughlin
Series: Proverbs



What were the two non-biblical approaches to parenting that Ryan cited as being particularly prevalent in our culture? How are they different regarding strategies and goals? What are their desired outcomes? What overlap do you see between them?

What is wisdom? (It may be helpful to review prior sermons as well.) Why is wisdom the best goal for parenting?

Proper biblical discipline appeals to both the _______ and the _______. Explain what this means, giving reference to Prov. 3:1-14.

When is/isn’t spanking wise? How is it used best? How is it used wrongly?

How do our children become our idols? How do you see this in the two non-biblical approaches we cited above?

What is the remedy of this idolatry? That is, how do we get rid of our children as idols? How does vv.11-12 aid us in answering this question?
