Chapter 3 in Tripp’s book is about, “The Family: Â God’s primary learning community.” Â He says,
“What does it mean to say that children think? Â It means that children will seek to make sense out of life. Â They will try to organize, interpret, and explain the things that go on around them and inside of them. Â Children are incessant interpreters, and they respond to life not on the basis of facts, but on the basis of the sense they have made out of those facts.”
Parents, we are the interpreters! Â We must grow in skill in taking every thought captive under Christ and learning and growing ourselves so that we may teach our children how to view the breadth of God’s world with wisdom.
