The Mystery of Parenthood is a show on RED-C Catholic Radio, headquartered in College Station, Texas. On August 16, 2017, host Trey Cashion had a lively discussion with his guest Dr. Mark Giszczak, Associate Professor of Sacred Scripture at the Augustine Institute in Denver, Colorado. The focus of the conversation was on Sirach 3, especially verses 1-16. Trey and Mark encouraged parents to familiarize themselves with this portion of Scripture because it explains the dynamic of love that should obtain between parents and children when they observe the Fourth Commandment. Consider reading these verses to your children at the same time each day; if possible, have them memorize Sirach 3. This week's Memory Verse is Sirach 3:14. "Kindness to a father will not be forgotten; it will serve as a sin offering--it will take lasting root." When we do a righteous act (e.g. obeying God and honoring our parents) without regard to self, we are atoning for own sin, and more importantly, we participate in Jesus' redemptive work in which he suffered and died in obedience to his father's plan for merciful deliverance of the whole human race. Remember to pray, parent with a purpose, and prepare for God to amaze you!
