Fortifying Your Children With God's Word

Contributed by Margaret Olubiyi on Nov 13, 2024

“And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.” Deut. 6:6-7

She did that for the Lord! What an example she is to ...read more
