Despite having plans for their children’s academic, athletic, social, and financial success, many parents, including Christian parents, have given little thought to their children’s spiritual development. This is the thing that matters most—their standing before God and their growth in grace. In this message from Colossians 3:20–21, David Platt highlights the difference it makes when parents and children listen to God’s Word and respond with faith in Jesus and obedience to his commands.
David Platt serves as a Lead Pastor for McLean Bible Church. He is also the Founder of Radical, an organization that makes Jesus known among the nations.
David received his B.A. from the University of Georgia and M.Div., Th.M., and Ph.D. from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Some of his published works include Radical, Radical Together, Follow Me, Counter Culture, Something Needs to Change, Don’t Hold Back, and How to Read the Bible.
He lives in the Washington, D.C. metro area with his wife and children.
