Shema For Your Children [Deuteronomy 6:6-25]

Shema For Your Children [Deuteronomy 6:6-25]

Author: Gospel Light October 28, 2025 Duration: 40:41

Christian parenting is not aiming for Harvard, but Heaven. But to point our children to God and His gospel requires work.

In Deuteronomy 6, we learn it involves:

1. INTERNALISATION

To teach God's Word, we need to internalise God's word. Not just to know or to memorise, but to also live it out. To help our kids know what it means to love God, we 've got to love God!

2. IMPARTATION

It is the parents' responsibility to teach our children about God. This cannot be farmed out. We've got to do it convincingly, consistently, conversationally, creatively and conspicuously.

3. INSTRUCTIONS

We are to teach our children the Shema (last week's sermon). But this passage elaborates further on what that all means. It is about the Favour of God, the Fear of God & the Faith in God.

We’ll never fully keep the Shema—but Jesus did. He paid our sin debt. Come to the cross and find grace in Him alone.
