As Christian moms, we have the responsibility and privilege of teaching our boys what is true about who they are and what isn’t. But how do we grow these tiny (and somewhat smelly) wild things into godly men of character?

· give him a solid foundation in an ever-shifting culture
In a world of giants and lions, you can raise up the next generation of Davids and Daniels. And you can do it while driving carpool, folding mountains of laundry, building model sets, eating dinner, and tucking them in for the night.
