He Who Began A Perfect Work…
When my kids were young I taught them about Jesus as best as I could.
All 3 got saved and baptized at a fairly young age.
As they got older and started going out on their own and were exposed to the world a bit – school, friends’ houses, the mall, the movies, etc. – then later college – they began to witness and experience bad things..
Things people typically witness or experience in a broken world.
Painful things.
Before long they struggled with their faith as society bombarded them with all sorts of lies that downplayed God and emphasized self.
Lies that characterized God in false, disrespectful ways.
They weren’t always obvious.
