Proverbs 22:6 says, “Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” On today’s edition of Family Talk, co-host Gary Bauer and his guest, Tom Rose, conclude their discussion on the imperative need to teach our children the biblical principles and values that our country was founded upon.
