Guiding Teens: Seeking God’s Wisdom in Parenthood
A 7-day study to help parents seek God’s wisdom in guiding teens through life’s decisions with faith and love.
📖 Introduction
Parenthood is a sacred, sometimes challenging journey, especially when guiding teenagers through the complex terrain of decision-making. As our teens face choices that shape their futures, parents often wonder how to best support them while also honoring God’s sovereign wisdom. This study is designed to encourage and equip parents to seek God's guidance and empower their teens with biblical principles for wise decision-making.
Life’s decisions can be overwhelming for young people, wrestling with peer pressure, values, and personal dreams. Yet, Scripture offers timeless wisdom, assuring us that God’s path leads to life and peace. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

- Offer loving support without overpowering.
Parenting teens is an opportunity to cultivate trust and communication while pointing them to a higher source of wisdom. Together, let’s discover how to navigate this significant role with grace and faith, confidently trusting God to guide both parent and child.
