C. John Miller in his book, Outgrowing the Ingrown Church (34):
. . . I once overheard a visitor to one of our services tell this story to a young father. He said, “This morning you brought your child to be given over to the Lord. I did that once too. But let me urge you from the bottom of my heart, don’t do to your child what I did to mine. As he grew up, he listened to me criticize the pastor year after year. As a consequence, I turned off my boy to the church and to ministers, and today he is far from God.”
That is a great reminder, thanks!
How important it is that we have a good witness before our children and grandchildren. They watch was we do and say. Such a good reminder.
