This identity makes it much easier to know what to do in those moments when right and wrong seem fuzzy, or when parents push back on a decision. Their thought process becomes based on “What would Jesus have me do?” because their identity in Christ is the foundation of who they are. My friends Craig and Kerry have three wonderful daughters. When decisions come up about short skirts and low-cut blouses, Kerry asks, “Do you think that’s appropriate?” A lot of kids would push back, thinking mom is putting her idea of appropriate on them.
