Welcome to another dailygrind edition of the SPF Podcast. There are a few thoughts rattling around in my head and heart that I wanted to get out, plus I had to tell you a story about a grasshopper's big day out . . . in my pants.

Training Up Our Children
If our kids go to church is that enough? (show notes bonus: Check out this article from the Babylon Bee - remember, it's satirical! Babylon Bee Article (remember this is satire!)
“Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Verses to examine:
- Deuteronomy 6:5-9
- Proverbs 22:6
- Judges 2:10
Making Melody in Our Hearts
Singing to the Lord is a great way to teach your children to praise Him. Learn to be discerning in what you teach your children. Words mean things, so it matters what we sing. A great place to start is with good ol hymns.
Check out this post to see a list of hymns and songs that we love: Sing Praises!
The New England Primer
This little book was the first textbook in America for children. Knowledge starts with the fear of God (Proverbs 1:7). This book allowed children to learn through the context of Truth. Can you imagine if this primer was still in our curriculum today?!
I highly recommend getting this book and teaching your children from it. Whether you are homeschooling or not, this is a book that will lay a foundation of Truth.
