Call them to repent. Don’t shy away from that word repent, or from what it represents. Our children must be called to acknowledge and forsake their sin. We must call them to repentance. Hear our Savior’s words: “No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish” (Luke 13:3). And again, “Repent, therefore, of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord that, if possible, the intent of your heart may be forgiven you” (Acts 8:22).
