In Raising Spiritual Champions, renowned researcher and bestselling author George Barna reveals that who your child will be as an adult is essentially determined by the age of 13―their core beliefs, morals, values, desires, and lifestyle. Raising your child is an exciting opportunity to influence a life, but it is also a daunting assignment. Parents have the God-given responsibility―and privilege―to guide the development of their children, a responsibility that cannot be delegated to schools, churches, media, or community organizations. Based on extensive national research, Barna outlines a biblical approach to raising children with the “Seven Cornerstones of a Biblical Worldview.”
Carefully blending scripture and sociological insights, Barna explains how parents can lead their children to:
* Establish their God-given identity
* Develop appropriate life priorities
* Grasp the source and significance of truth
* Embrace an eternal perspective
* Properly define life success
* Find compelling meaning and purpose
Raising Spiritual Champions is a dynamic, Bible-based, research-supported guide for the parents of tomorrow’s Christian Church.
Parents have the Biblical responsibility, and thus the right, to provide for, protect, nurture, and disciple their children. (Deut. 6:4-9, Eph. 6:4, 1 Tim. 5:8) The government was instituted to protect our God-given rights, including the rights of parents to the care, custody, and control of their children. The United States Supreme Court has affirmed: “the child is not the mere creature of the State; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.” Id.

Many parents, including some of our clients, are rightly concerned that the government has violated their fundamental right to direct the upbringing, education, and care of their children. They want school boards to remove politics from the classroom and get back to academics. They have the right to express those concerns to elected officials and shouldn’t live in fear of government punishment for doing so.
The main victims of the radical sexual ideology are children. The agenda is rooted in a Marxist ideology aimed at destroying and reseting every structure or norm that stands in its way. This ideology is aggressive and has invaded every sphere that shapes culture, especially education, media, and now even the medical field.
The radical Left views the nuclear family as an obstacle to the State’s control and power, positioning parents as the enemy of their child’s self autonomy. More than ever, parents must be aware, informed, and vigilant in protecting their children.
Parents have the God-given responsibility, and thus the right, to care for and raise their children. However, agents of the State, who are have received a Marxist influenced education and are now in the work force and taking positions of leadership, increasingly see parents as a threat and a danger to their children if parents are not operating within the Leftist (Marxist) ideology.
