Mark 9:36-37 , Psalm 127:3-5a ,Proverbs 22:6

How amazing that Jesus chose a little child to exemplify how our love and caring for children demonstrates our love for our Lord! The writer of Psalm 127 reminds us that children are a gift from God. Our love and caring can be shown in many ways, including training up the child “in the way he should go.”  This passage has been very controversial in the past, so we will take a closer look at it.

Consider the following question:  

  • If you have children (or when you have them in the future), what are ways one can “train up a child in the way he should go?” 
  • In this answer, include a response to what Santrock says about punishment in Chapter 6.
