Have you been in a situation where the kids you’re working with just don’t listen? Maybe they’re your kids, your kids’ friends, or kids at church. I have a young man in my 5th and 6th grade church small group that’s like this. He does something wrong. I tell him to stop. He does it again. I repeat myself. It goes on for five or six exchanges, and then finally I have to stop and say, “Look at me. Did you hear what I said? Are you obeying? Are you being selfish? Are you honoring Christ?” Then, we’re good. Ultimately, we’re all raising cute little sinners who need a Savior, just like we do. Use these moments to speak the truth in love. Sin is death, but God’s gift of Jesus provides salvation to all who believe.
They just don’t listen. What do I do?
