How can grandparents help grandchildren believe in Jesus?

????

Passing on the Christian faith to our grandchildren is our duty before God. But what happens when grandchildren are no longer being discipled by their parents due to a lack of faith? What's the best way to graciously step in?

I teach my grandkids daily. I pray for my children, who aren't saved. But luckily they need me enough they don't object to my teaching. I'm blessed in this way.
@matts2588 Says:
Very good! I agree totally. I have 30 grandkids
@miningquest2006 Says:
Correct Answer: They shouldn't. Christian's love boasting about their supposed "Free Will" that God gave them to choose their religion, yet parents and grandparents won't give their children the same gift that God has supposedly gifted them. Can always rely on y'all to literally be so hypocritical.
@crazando Says:
I'm not a grandparent or a father yet but I wanted to be prepared when I am one. Thank you Frank and Charlie!
@XTeam49 Says:
My grandparents have been a key factor of my faith in just how it was clear God has been saving them and their children throughout their lives. I got countless things to tell but that is not of a youtube comment. What I can tell in short is that my Grandfather was healed in his heart and he got 25 more years to witness 5 more grandchildren and 1 great grandchild and he had a an impact on all of us. He had countless stories of how he survived working as a fisherman in the north sea and baltic sea, and how God was instrumental in his, his fathers, his brothers and co-workers well being at seas. My grandmother has always told me of how God is of such importance in one’s life, and how important it is to trust the creator. Case an point, God is real, God is love and kindness, God is here and it is not wise to turn the other way away from he who knows best!

I'm an Aunt, but I am going through this with one of my nieces. We've invited her and my sister to church, but they haven't taken us up on that yet. My husband and I have talked about it and we've decided that trying too hard to sneak around my sister would not be a proper way to show my niece that A, this isn't anything to be ashamed of and B, we don't want to potentially pit our niece against her mom and dad and run afoul of "Honor your mother and father." Our plan is to pray for right now and maintain a relationship with my niece so that we can maybe have that conversation when she's an adult if she wants to. I understand the impulse to go "this is important, I can't keep quiet about this with my grandchild, niece, nephew" but mom and dad hold full authority over the child, as it should be, and trying to undermine that is dangerous. Spreading Christianity in the wrong way can hurt your case.
@gloriacervantes3300 Says:
Dude keeps saying to speak truth but he just means to believe his truth which has zero validity. The kids will be alright without religion. If gramma is pushing religion on your kids find a new Gramma 🤣

Don't leave your kids without guidance in life. My parents did and I had to learn life the hard way.

Great word, brother Frank. It's our responsibility and privelege to pass our knowledge onto our children and grandchildren

I think the way you do it is by making Sunday the funnest day of the week for them. Bring them to church, talk to them about Jesus after church. Maybe buy donuts before hand and get pizza afterwards? But be sure to make Sunday the funnest day of the week for them!
@trinity408 Says:
The more you press an atheist to give not just evidence but a logical argument as to why God doesn't exist, the more you will see a pattern of said atheist either resorting to mockery or the Dilahunty dodge technique which means never accepting the burden of proof because atheism can't evidentially or logically back up its faith. Atheism in itself is a weak belief system, doesn't require much thinking either, just be as skeptical as you want and never give a logical alternative. It is interesting though that most of the atheists in the comment sections literally believe that their past experience as a 'religious person' means that we have to take their opinion more seriously as if it actually makes their arguments more valid. It doesn't.

@BabbleCacophony Says:
What if someone else decided to make your child into a nihilist(thats usually a scary word for Christians, im pretty sure)? Not tell your kids about nihilism but try to make them into one against the parents will. This is what is being advocated here. This is why my parents will never see my children without my supervision.
@mikeramos91 Says:
Children can come to church but it would be better to let them grow up to high school/college level before making the decision to give their life to Christ.
@Brickzot Says:
If they’re not punished simply because they didn’t know, then why poison them with the information?
@J_Tapio Says:
Teach children how to think, not what to think. Let kids develop critical thinking skills before you tell them anything about religion if you want them to be able to think without being trapped in a bubble of religious indoctrination.
@memastarful Says:
My grandfather aka abuelo was an ex Cuban political prisoner for 5 years. He fought hard for his country Cuba against the Castro regime. He told me God is real and helped him survive those torturous 5 years in Cuban prison. He always got emotional when he talked about God. R.i.p. abuelo you fought the good fight now you can rest with our heavenly Father. 🇨🇺

I’d show the kid how apologetic sites like AIG lie by lining up its entry of the fossil Lucy with the Wikipedia entry and comparing the two.

kirk..."profess truth"..."always preach the truth"....yet he claims, the 2020 election was stolen, christians, never send their best!

Because the best way to keep your antiquated beliefs alive is getting them while they’re young!
@Yipper64 Says:
2:28 well im not a teenager anymore but I had been for almost the past decade and I can confirm, ever since I became a teenager. My freaken life has been in front of these glowing rectangles. Most of it anyways. What wasnt in front of the rectangle was being in school getting subtle (which has gotten less subtle over time) indoctrination into untrue things. Its a wonder ive turned out with my faith so strong regardless. I guess I spend just enough time with my parents, and have just enough good things on those rectangles sometimes to really get good information. And I do go to church on Sundays. Its not ideal but my life is working out ok.
@albaraka7319 Says:
well unlike your god that glowy rectangle can actually be shown to exist.
@azophi Says:
My parents have told me not to mention my leaving the faith to my grandparents “because it would kill them.” Wondering how you guys would have me proceed
@MrTheclevercat Says:
Atheist kids know a hell of a lot more about the nature of reality than people such as Frank Turek.
@tromdial7719 Says:
@Frank Turek, come on the Timcast IRL show sometime with Charlie Kirk and get introduced to Tim and others. Million subscriber podcast hosted by non-Christians who would be willing to listen to factual Christian arguments. Give Tim and his audience the gospel. Would affect thousands who didn't know logical apologetic arguments for the faith existed.
@brianpeterson8908 Says:
Brainwash those babies! Get them while they are young, damage their brains so they can't break free of their religious lies!
@wakeupsunshine777 Says:
I’ve always known Jesus was my Lord and Savior. But I raised my kids in a time where I wasn’t practicing spirituality, so now my children are in their 30s and don’t want anything to do with me because of my morals and values in Jesus Christ, if I bring him up they tell me to stop, they see my joy and my love for Jesus. And I just pray that the Lord sends a messenger to their soul to remove the scales from their ears Eyes and heart , I pray for my children to want to know Jesus Christ and invite him into their life.

Don't be afraid to offend your grand kids? Being a jerk can easily push them away. Good luck with that. 🤦🏾‍♂️
@babhag5481 Says:
Religious indoctrination = child abuse "The child has no perspective and no choice but to cooperate in order to survive. The messages are received and embedded in the brain while certain areas of brain development are repressed through lack of stimulation, chief of which is critical thinking."
@babhag5481 Says:
Children should be free from religious indoctrination...!!! "Forcing religion onto minors is a form of child abuse, which limits their ability to consider the world in an unbiased manner"

Sadly today kids are encouraged to pick and choose thier gender not submit to their Creator

If there’s a possibility, can Frank Turek have a live stream where those who have the book can read it along with him on live? Love the book so far. Didn’t finish it but I think I may need another book to write down just the notes and key points from his book ‘I don’t have enough faith to be an atheist’
@gprimeofx Says:
I thank God for my grandmother who told me about Jesus back when I was just a little boy. I don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for her!

My Father's wonderful testimony and the experience of answers prayers. He always talked about a Christ centered life. He has been gone for a couple of yrs but his wisdom lives on
@weirdwilliam8500 Says:
This is good advice…if the goal is to become a toxic presence in your kid’s lives and estranged from your family. This only accelerates deconversion.
@aaronmonroe7932 Says:
Frank answered the question good. Speak with the parents first. The second guy: what if I'm a member of Judaism and I come up to your kids to tell them that Jesus isn't the jewish messiah and the one god isn't a Trinity and if you worship Jesus as God then it's idolatry? You wouldn't like that. It doesn't matter if I'm not related to the kids because the truth matters and I believe I got the truth. Speak with the parents. I know it's your grandkids but remember the road is a two lane road. The other lane matters.
@user-qb9pf5jo6l Says:
I agree as a fatherless child. abandoned by my birth mother and suicide of my father. I spent my younger years being an atheist because it's all i saw in my iPad looking up on people like Stephen hawking because as a child my mind is on "if only I were smart enough" looking at people who were smart but being misguided I grew up in PH were I grew up with my father and family worshiping Black Nazarene a Black skinned idol of Christ. over those years I became atheist a really toxic one shouting hurting people of faith in Christ. and after a long scare from God I came into faith but at first i came back to that catholic black nazareth group and saw a black and white YouTube comic about Catholics worship of idols and how it's bad and how they change the bible to fit their worship and told myself if i want to have a serious relationship with God i gotta know who I am worshiping. YouTube was not the best teacher i was guided to a lot of misinformation about Christianity and all about what to eat and what not to eat, if things are allowed, what's the actual message of the gospel. i as a young child and young Christian believed such things but not for the longest time. I mean God did say if I seek him I will find him. I have learned so much about his nature how everything points back to him. I'm 18 now and I still don't understand everything I think I'm in a good position now than ever. knowing sources like C.S Lewis and people like frank. STR Greg koukl's tactics. meanwhile pandemic and summer I am equipping myself for apologetics for my college and people who come to question my faith (1 peter 3:15) "But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect," I pray for those who are like me who seek the truth, and to those who struggle with sin. for I struggle as well. may we be perfected to be like Christ. and for our families who aren't in relationship with the Lord maybe the hardest ones i can share to, Hostile most of them are I do pray the Holy spirit can get through their hearts.

As much as I despised going to church when I was a kid I'm now glad I did. Thank God for good parents and grandparents that teach kids about Jesus 🙏
@smarterworkout Says:
Teach by example. When you sin, explain to them your sin and how you feel and how Jesus will relieve your heavy heart. Show them the process from beginning to end. From the sin against God, to the Holy Spirit convicting you, to the redemption by Jesus Christ.
@gorillaz_jbi Says:
God instructs grandparents to teach grandchildren the truths of Scripture. Deuteronomy 4:9 states, “Teach these things to your children and children’s children.” In Psalm 78:5 God commands grandparents to teach multiple generations to obey God’s commands. Throughout church history the primary method to teach and disciple young people has been called family worship. Family worship is the means of introducing children to the truths of Scripture and preparing children for the Christian life. The practice consists of reading the Bible as a family, prayer, and praising God through music. If you have not developed the habit of regularly reading and discussing the Bible with your grandchildren, then this is a high impact priority for you to implement. Read the Bible, not someone’s thoughts about the Bible. Read the entire Bible to children. Read briefly. Your goal is to explain the Bible passage clearly and biblically, engage grandchildren in the process, and help them apply God’s truth to life. Teach grandchildren the core truths of Christianity. Explain the big picture of the Bible. Explain the Core truths of the Christian Faith. Early instruction, frequent instruction, and biblical instruction. (2 Tim 1:5; 3:15) (2 Tim 3:14) (2 Tim 3:15)
