Children are a heritage

May 31, 2026    Tony Streigle, Tony Streigle, Robin Streigle

What if the most profound spiritual truth we could ever grasp was hidden in the everyday chaos of raising children? This sermon invites us to see parenting not as a burden to manage but as a sacred partnership with God himself. Drawing from Psalm 127:3, we are reminded that children are a heritage and reward from the Lord, meaning the way we raise them carries eternal weight. The central call is not simply to produce well-mannered, successful people, but to raise disciples who carry the light of Christ into a world that desperately needs it. We are challenged to move faith out of its Sunday compartment and weave it into the fabric of daily life, at the dinner table, in the car, at bedtime, and even in the middle of a chaotic morning routine. The message is clear and urgent: our children are always watching, and faith is more often caught than taught.
