Over the next eight podcast episodes, we are going to share Chosen Gen's book, Discipleship Parenting Foundations, as an audiobook. This book is a call back to the biblical foundations that change every area of our lives, including how we raise our children. It is an urgent reminder of our God-given role to disciple our kids, showing them how to walk the path following Jesus, not the wide road of this world. In chapter one, we examine the sobering statistic that 60 percent of the next generation is walking away from the faith by the time they reach adulthood and why it is happening.

Jesus said it best in Luke 17, "Remember Lot's wife!" We know the infamous story of her turning into a pillar of salt for looking back at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. What is the warning for us, Christians, mercifully rescued by our Savior?

Do our kids need smartphones? One job we have as parents is to protect our children from danger. Do smartphones in the hands of our kids help us do that? Or do they actually expose them to backdoor dangers that can have lasting impacts on their faith?
