When Children Rule the Roost

Sermon by Dr. Robert Lewis

5/7/2000

Dr. Robert Lewis preaches about marriage and the four seasons of life, including the early years before children, the time when children rule the roost, the empty nest, and love's finishing touches. He emphasizes the importance of addressing crises in each season to avoid carrying them over to the next. He stresses the financial, marriage, and parenting crises that can occur during the time when children rule the roost. He suggests holding onto the goal of raising children who walk with God, making the most of your time, and investing in your marriage during this season. He concludes by reflecting on the bittersweet experience of watching children grow up and leave home, emphasizing the importance of leaving them with God's truth, memories of their parents' love, a dream to pursue, and a model of a loving relationship.
