What Jesus Said About Fathers and Mothers Causing Spiritual WoundsNäide

Treat your father and mother with grace, mercy, and respect

All fathers and mothers make mistakes. All of them. They are human. Most want to be good parents. But all parents fail in some aspects.

A story: I failed to be a father to my son. I clearly remember the day in 1993 when I listened to the pastor of the largest church in the world (at that time). The pastor is David Yongi Cho of the Yoido Full Gospel Church in Seoul, South Korea. With much sorrow in front of 700 church leaders and evangelists worldwide, he said: "I have the largest church in the world, but I failed to be a father to my son."
