Summary

This should influence your parenting decisions: Two-thirds of Americans claim to be Christians, but only four percent of all adults hold a biblical worldview according to the recent Barna studies. So what does it mean when someone says they are a Christian today? It certainly doesn’t mean there's like-mindedness. It doesn’t mean we automatically trust them, and it doesn’t mean their children are safe influences for your children. This is true even in the church you go to.

We aren’t to have fear, but instead to trust God, but can He trust you? Trust you to disciple his children in the ways they should go? God is sovereign but we have an awesome responsibility in equipping our children which frankly, in reflection of these stats is going to have to look much different than what most Christians are doing around you.

0:00.0	Welcome to Courageous Parenting Podcast, a weekly show to equip parents with biblical truth on raising
0:04.9	confident Christian kids in an uncertain world. Hi, I'm Angie from Courageous Mom and Isaac from Resolute Man,
0:10.7	together pursuing the mission to impact 10 million families and their legacies for the kingdom of God.
0:15.9	We've been married for 23 years and are seeing the fruit from raising our nine children biblically based on the raw
0:22.1	truth found in the Bible. We can no longer let the culture win the hearts of children as too many
0:27.4	from Christian families are walking away from their faith by the age 18 and it doesn't have to be
0:31.8	this way. It shouldn't be this way. We're praising the Lord that the ministry continues to expand and impact more legacies.
0:39.4	We couldn't do this without you, whether you pray for us, give us five-star reviews, or share
0:43.7	on social. Or even if you purchase courses and merge or join the Be Courageous Act community,
0:48.0	enjoy the coffee or support financially. We're so thankful. You are a big part of the 10 million
0:52.2	legacies movement. If you want access to all the
0:54.5	episodes, show notes, and other biblically based resources, go to be courageous ministry.org.
0:59.2	Join us as we start another important conversation about effective parenting in the following world.
1:03.4	Hey, welcome to the show. Hey, guys. So glad you're here.
1:06.4	Today we're talking about a really important topic. We're going to share some statistics and research on Christianity and what the demographics
1:16.4	of Christianity really looks like today because that does affect our parenting in a very
1:21.3	real, raw, practical way.
1:24.0	And so I think today's episode is incredibly relevant to you regardless of what season
1:29.3	of parenting that you're in. Now, it's so important to understand this because it can, we can be
1:34.2	almost blinded sometimes by the identity people share with us of being a Christian, going to church,
1:40.6	and these kinds of things. And our guard can be sometimes maybe a little too down when it comes to our little children.
1:47.9	That's right.
