Sermon Discussion Questions
1.  Should children obey/honor their parents when they become adults? How do passages like Genesis 2:24 and 1 Timothy 5:3-4 give us helpful direction? What are some practical ways an adult child could honor parents?
2.  Why do you think Paul gives the warning to fathers to not provoke their children to anger? Consider how this aligns with the character of God in Exodus 34:6 and Psalm 145:8. What does it look like for a parent to focus on the child’s heart and not merely changing behavior?
3.  What are some ways parents and grandparents can weave biblical truth into daily life (both explicitly and implicitly) as a way of instructing children/grandchildren? How does the parent/child framework of instruction/honor inform our interaction with others in the church family? (See 1 Timothy 1:2, 5:1-2; Titus 1:4)
