If you have been a parent for more than probably five minutes, you have realized humility and parenting often go together. When those rare minutes occur that allow you to think ever so briefly you might actually be a half way decent parent, something will happen to remind you to be humble. (My personal list is very long!)
The older I get, the more I realize how vitally important godly humility is for Christian parenting our children. It’s what allows us to seek guidance and wisdom from God and experienced Christian parents instead of making unnecessary and potentially devastating mistakes. Humility is also what will keep us and our children following God and not making up our own “bible”.
Pride is what ultimately caused Eve to choose to eat that forbidden fruit and pride can and will cause us and our children to stumble and sin. So what do we need to teach our kids so they will be truly humble and yet avoid being doormats?
