RAISING GODLY CHILDREN IN A DIGITAL AGE.

Spread the love

In today’s world, children are growing up surrounded by digital technology—smartphones, social media, video games, and the internet. While these tools offer incredible opportunities for learning and connection, they also bring challenges like exposure to inappropriate content, cyberbullying, and distractions from spiritual growth. As Christian parents, it’s more important than ever to raise godly children who can navigate this digital age with wisdom and faith.

“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” — Proverbs 22:6 (ESV)


Why Raising Godly Children Matters Today

Raising children with strong biblical values builds a foundation that stands firm amid the shifting cultural landscape. Faith teaches children their identity in Christ, helping them resist peer pressure and harmful influences online.

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind…” — Romans 12:2 (ESV)

This transformation starts at home, where faith is lived out daily and children learn to trust God’s truth over the world’s noise.


Faith-Centered Parenting Strategies for the Digital Age

Set Healthy Digital Boundaries with Grace
Limit screen time and monitor the content your children consume. Teach them that technology is a tool, not a master.

“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” — Colossians 3:23 (ESV)
Help your child understand that their time and attention should honor God.

Encourage Regular Prayer, Worship, and Bible Study
Make spiritual disciplines a family priority. Pray together about challenges, including digital temptations.

“But Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me…’” — Matthew 19:14 (ESV)
Show children that God welcomes their questions and prayers.

Model Christ-like Behavior in Everyday Life
Children learn by example. Demonstrate kindness, honesty, and self-control in your own digital habits.

“Be imitators of God, as beloved children.” — Ephesians 5:1 (ESV) Create Open Communication About Online Experiences

Encourage your children to share what they see and experience online without fear of judgment.

“Therefore encourage one another and build one another up…” — 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (ESV)


Teaching Biblical Values Through Technology

Help your children see their worth in God’s eyes, not by social media likes or online popularity.

“I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” — Psalm 139:14 (ESV)

Teach honesty, kindness, and purity—values that should guide both online and offline behavior.

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable… think about these things.” — Philippians 4:8 (ESV)

Use Bible stories and verses to combat harmful messages they might encounter online.

MODELING GODLY BEHAVIOUR

Demonstrate mercy and kindness towards others, teaching your children to hold onto truth without shunning or shaming.

Show your children how to respond, rather than react, to challenging situations, following Jesus’ example.

Conclusion

The digital age presents unique parenting challenges, but with faith, wisdom, and intentionality, you can raise godly children who thrive spiritually and navigate technology responsibly. Remember, your example and guidance plant seeds that will grow a lifetime.

“And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children…” — Deuteronomy 6:6-7 (ESV)
