This week Justin and Molly build on the prior week's exercise about the goals parents have for their children. This week as they open up the second and third chapters of Douglas Wilson's Why Children Matter, they examine the Bible in order to see what God's goals are for His children. The second chapter of Why Children Matter lays emphasis that God's goals are accomplished through the method of imitation. Children will imitate their parents, and parents are to be imitating God. Finally they turn to chapter 3 of Why Children Matter briefly to see the first aspect of how parents are to imitate God: they are to give themselves for their children's good (sacrifice) and to rejoice in doing so (singing).
