Every parent wants their child to succeed, but we forget that kids learn to walk by falling. We don’t see them tumble and say, ‘Well, I guess they’ll never walk.’ We cheer, because every fall is part of progress.

For many, success looks like good grades, hard work, and confidence. Those are good things. But if we stop there, we risk raising kids who know how to achieve but not how to live.

Gaming isn’t evil; it’s a mirror. It shows us where our kids are finding their worth. Even the rich young ruler struggled with this. His sense of self came from what he could control and achieve. Jesus offered him freedom through surrender.
