⁶"Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
Proverbs 22:6

This sets the Library focus for this month. Many teachers have indicated a lack of interest by a number of their students in class work or appropriate behavior. As Christian parents, we need to be aware that it is our responsibility to promote behavior that is beneficial to child and classroom.

Deuteronomy, chapters 4-6, are Moses' words to the Israelites about the need for holy living. He reviews the commandments and urges that these instructions be passed on to the children." Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road. The reason he gives for this action: "that it may go well with you".

In addition to taking a look at these chapters in Deuteronomy, you should consider getting out the catechism book for a quick review, and talking through your child's Sunday school lesson with him or her. Share insights from your adult study.
