Parents are top influence in teens remaining active in religion as young adults

“Parents are top influence in teens remaining active in religion as young adults”mm by David Briggs in The Christian Century of 11/5/14. Parents who practice what they preach and who preach what they practice are the biggest influence on adolescents keeping the faith in their twenties. A similar biblical theme: “Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart. Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home and when you are away, when you lie down and when you rise” (Deuteronomy 6:6-7). http://bit.ly/1wmcOgL
