Helping Your Children Navigate the World of Ideas — Richard Rossiter
In this powerful message delivered at Marriage Weekend 2026, Pastor Richard Rossiter explores the deep contrast between the Woman of Wisdom and the Woman of Folly as presented in Proverbs 9. While many focus solely on outward conduct, Pastor Rossiter challenges us to look deeper at the "World of Ideas" that drives our behavior. Discover why simply dictating conduct isn't enough to protect the next generation, and how cultivating a heart that fears the Lord and tastes His holiness is the only way to truly navigate the competing voices of our culture.
