Many fathers have preconceived ideas of how their sons should act and what they should be interested in. But let me say this again: God made your son in His image, not yours.

Proverbs 5 shows us that a father is to talk straight with his son about the boundaries God has put around His gift of sex. Notice that the father doesn’t mince any words. He attempts to prepare his son for what might occur long before it happens. This is precisely what we are to do as leaders of our homes.

The short answer is that we do not run and we do not hide. We stay at our posts and do not abandon them. This doesn’t mean that the Lord couldn’t lead a husband and wife to move their family to another state. Just make sure your decision is made out of faith and not fear.

The husband has been given authority in the home by God, just as the quarterback has it in the huddle and the captain has it in the cockpit. No question: male authority in the home is not a popular idea anymore. Maybe that’s why the American family is in such trouble?

Here’s the problem. Since 2007, I have carried a live grenade with me all the time. A smartphone or tablet is a spiritual grenade, with the potential to do great damage. You absolutely have to get control of it along with all your other tech devices.

Extreme, you say? A little over the top, maybe? You bet. And that’s exactly what Jesus was telling us to do. I can promise you this: if we don’t get extreme with the temptation of our eyes, then it will get extreme with us.
