ParentingA good father is a source of inspiration and self-

restraint. A good mother is the root of kindness and humbleness.

Dr T.P.ChiaParenthood…It’s about guiding the next generation

and forgiving the last.Peter Krause

T1 HONOR YOUR PARENTSEphesians 6:1-3

1 Children, obey your parents because you belong to the Lord, for this is the right thing to do. 2 “Honor

your father and mother.” This is the first commandment with a promise: 3 If you honor your father and mother, “things will go well for you, and

you will have a long life on the earth.”Ephesians 6:1-3

PatriotismPatriotism means to stand by the country. It does not mean to stand by the president or any other

public official.Theodore Roosevelt

America was not built on fear. America was built on courage, on imagination, and an unbeatable

determination to do the job at hand.Harry S. Truman

T2 HONOR YOUR COUNTRY.Romans 13:1-7

1 Everyone must submit to governing authorities. For all authority comes from God, and those in

positions of authority have been placed there by God. 2So anyone who rebels against authority is

rebelling against what God has instituted, and they will be punished. 3For the authorities do not strike fear in people who are doing right, but in those who

are doing wrong.Romans 13:1-3a

3 Would you like to live without fear of the authorities? Do what is right, and they will honor you. 4The authorities are God’s servants, sent for

your good. But if you are doing wrong, of course you should be afraid, for they have the power to punish

you. They are God’s servants, sent for the very purpose of punishing those who do what is wrong.

Romans 13:3b-4

5So you must submit to them, not only to avoid punishment, but also to keep a clear conscience.6Pay your taxes, too, for these same reasons. For

government workers need to be paid. They are serving God in what they do. 7Give to everyone what you owe them: Pay your taxes and government fees

to those who collect them, and give respect and honor to those who are in authority.

Romans 13:5-7

PastoringThe real power and test of our ministry is not in the pulpit or public arena, but in our private lives, our

home.Bernard Kelvin Clive

When a pastor is led by what people demand of them and not what God demands of them

a shepherd turns into a wolf.John M Sheehan

T3 HONOR YOUR CHURCH LEADERS.1 Timothy 5:17-19

17Elders who do their work well should be respected and paid well, especially those who

work hard at both preaching and teaching. 18For the Scripture says, “You must not muzzle an ox to keep

it from eating as it treads out the grain.” And in another place, “Those who work deserve their pay!”19Do not listen to an accusation against an elder unless it is confirmed by two or three witnesses.

1 Timothy 5:17-19
