Tread Boldly

Becoming Whole

To “tread” means to walk in a specified way. Tread Boldly.

As a parent, especially of teens, you may consider treading carefully as the best way to handle hormones and cold shoulders and uncomfortable conversations. But, as you’ll hear Josh explain; you are called to tread boldly.

This is a special episode as our very own Josh Glaser releases his first book today - “Treading Boldly through a Pornographic World: A Field Guide for Parents.”

Josh and co-author, Daniel Weiss, lay out the groundwork for you to be better equipped in our digitally saturated culture. Don’t shy away from this one.

This is a unique opportunity to hear Josh’s heart and advice before reading the book. What’s one way to tread boldly today? “Focus on what you are FOR, not against.”

Listen in.

Highlights:

Backward Vision: “Don’t have sex until you’re married. Don’t look at pornography.” That’s backward vision. Look forward.

Don’t focus on the sin. Focus on the goal.

Kids who have had premarital sex need a vision that is more robust than how they did sexually in one given moment or season.

Homework:

Forming a Family Vision:

1. Mark your Starting Point as right here, right now. Understand it can and will travel with you.
2. Consider falls or setbacks as opportunities to grow NOT failures of the goal.
3. Let the focus be on what you are FOR versus what you are against.
4. Focus on Jesus, not your sin or performance.
