How to Develop Character in Your Children

Our Price:$6.97CAD »More info... » »Add to Wish List

Jesus was called the "express image" of God in Heb. 1:3. The Greek word for "express image" is "charakter." Jesus had the mark or character of the Father on Him. In a different yet similar way, you and I should have the mark of the character of Jesus upon our lives. To develop character in children: 1. Begin chiseling early and continue doing so until the desired image is developed. 2. Make discussions about character a regular occurrence in the home. 3. Make corrections by pointing out missing character qualities. 4. Praise character qualities. We naturally tend to praise knowledge, position, talent, accomplishment, or physical beauty or strength. The Bible is full of praise for character! An especially exciting study is noticing who Jesus praised and how He praised them.

How to Pass on Your Convictions to Your Children

When the Lord "appeared to Solomon in a dream by night" and said, "Ask what I shall give thee," Solomon wisely asked for an understanding heart. Knowledge is learning what God wants me to do. Wisdom is learning how to do it. Understanding is learning why to do it. God isn't just interested in you knowing what you believe. God is also interested in you knowing why you believe what you believe. In Proverbs God not only told the young man to avoid the strange woman and the evil man. God also told him "why." When children ask the question "Why?" it is not enough for parents to answer, "Because I said so." A key to passing beliefs, standards, and convictions on to the next generation is by giving them "understanding." "Understanding" is also vitally important as a motivation to cause someone to seek after knowledge.

Integrity - The Parent of Character

Our Price:$6.97CAD »More info... » »Add to Wish List

Many people recognize the importance of character, but not as many people recognize that integrity is more important than character. In fact, integrity is the parent of character. It is the producer of character. If a person lacking in character will get integrity then they will eventually get character. But it is possible to have certain character qualities but not keep them because of a lack of integrity. Integrity is the unwavering determination in the heart to do right no matter what. A person of integrity works when he is being watched and when he is not being watched. He pays his bills on time. He cannot rest if he has inadvertently taken advantage of someone without making it right. It’s better to have a handshake from a man of integrity than a signed contract from a man lacking integrity. Integrity must be held in the heart and should not be for sale at any price. It is both a guide and a guard for a person’s life. And integrity is most important in the home.
