In today's episode, we talk with Pastor Randy Garcia, lead pastor at Fortress Church in San Antonio, TX.

Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 (ESV)

“In the way he should go” actually means “his way”. It refers to the child’s particular bent. Used as a noun, the word bent means a special way of doing something, or the special way in which something was designed. When shot from a bow, an arrow will travel in a particular direction, depending on the bow’s bent. This is designed into the bow. If you try to bend a bow differently than the way it is bent, at best you’ll miss your target, at worst, you could break the bow.

We use the acronym BENT to help us understand 4 Biblical keys to raising children in today's society.

Be aware of how uniquely God designed your child.Encourage with both words and action.Nurture Turn negatives into positives.
