This is Ken Ham, editor of the best-selling apologetics series, The New Answers Books.

Transcript

Today we’re finish our series on how you can encourage your family to stand on the authority of God’s Word. We’ve discussed reading, memorizing, talking about, and rejoicing in it. Now what do all these things have in common? Well, they keep the Bible as a constant companion in your home.

When the Bible is held in this place, you and your family will welcome its authority in your life, and it will have the final say.

When you are constantly reading, memorizing, discussing, and rejoicing in God’s Word, you’ll know what it says and can apply what you’ve learned. God’s Word becomes the standard—the authority—by which you think.
