Mark 10:6-9 NASB

6 But from the beginning of creation, God CREATED THEM MALE AND FEMALE.
7 For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother,
8 and the two shall become one flesh; so they are no longer two, but one flesh.
9 Therefore, what God has joined together, no person is to separate.”

Genesis 1:26 NLT

Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.”

Genesis 1:27 NLT

So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.

God weighs in on the multi-gender conversation. Only male and female. That’s from the wisdom of God’s creation. It’s a TRUTH God blesses.

Genesis 1:28 NLT

Then God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and multiply. Fill the earth and govern it. Reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, and all the animals that scurry along the ground.”

Living God’s way produces life, blessing, and fruitfulness.

God gave these kids to YOU!

WHO ARE OUR CHILDREN’S GREATEST INFLUENCERS?

Proverbs 22:6 NLT

Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.

Deuteronomy 6:4-9 NLT

4 “Listen, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD alone.
5 And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.
6 And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today.
7 Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.
8 Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders.
9 Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

I teach my children that God and His wisdom are found in the everyday interactions.

His Word goes beyond concept; it’s my life.
