  1. Parent’s Day

  2. INTRODUCTION

  3. The origin of Mother’s Day & Father’s day

  4. I. Why celebrate?

  5. II. What Scripture says about parent-child relationship?

  6. I did a search and found at least 38 Scriptures that speak directly about parent-child relationships: 26 in OT and 12 in the NT. 17 on Teach 7 on Honour 14 on Obey

  7. To Parents- Teach

  8. The Scripture places the sole burden of teaching children on the shoulders of the fathers. (Exodus 12:25-27,Deuteronomy 4:9-10, 11:19, 32:45-47, Joel 1:3) Deuteronomy 6:6-9ESV “And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.”

  9. To Parents- Teach- Do not provoke

  10. Colossians 3:20-21 (ESV) “Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.” 7 ways, 18 ways, …21 ways.

  11. To Children- Honour

  12. "Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the LORD your God is giving you. (Exodus 20:12) “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you." (Deuteronomy 5:16)

  13. To Children- Honour- Obey

  14. “Every one of you shall revere his mother and his father, and you shall keep my Sabbaths: I am the LORD your God.” (Leviticus 19:3) “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” (Ephesians 6:1-3)

  15. III. What we can do to improve our parent-child relationships beyond Mother’s day and Father’s day?

  16. Weekly/monthly meal. Spending time with each child. Visiting parents weekly/regularly. Set aside days for Family holidays. Mark down and celebrate all birthdays and anniversaries. Providing for parents’ needs/monthly allowance. Saving up for children’s needs. Listening to each other – quantity versus quality. Car rides/picking and sending.

  17. CONCLUSION

  18. Just do it!
