It's Hard to Raise Them Right

Oct 18, 2026  •  Pastor Michael Moos

On Child Dedication Sunday, Pastor Michael Moos continues our series Hard Things in Judges 13, the birth of Samson. Before the angel of the Lord said anything to the child, he gave instructions to the parents, and Manoah prayed, 'Teach us what we shall do unto the child.' Pastor Moos gives three Bible principles for raising children set apart for God: teach them to be separate from the world, teach them to be close to God through spiritual conversations and your own example, and teach them to be a light. It's hard to raise them right, but with God's help it can be done.
