Fear Factor in Parenting: Facing Threats Against Our Children

Every parent knows that this world holds real dangers for our children, and those dangers seem to multiply as kids get older. Many threats are legitimate, and we are right to cry out to God in our fears for our kids. Other apparent threats spring from the idols of our hearts; these fears bring us to repentance and trust in God's sovereign plan for our kids. God's word equips us to respond to our fear out of faith.
