In this second episode of The Parenting Blueprint series, Andy explores one of parenting’s most profound guiding principles: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is grown, he will not depart from it.” This episode invites parents to reconsider their role as guides, not just raising great kids, but preparing children to become great adults.

Andy unpacks the deeper meaning behind this timeless wisdom from King Solomon, highlighting how effective parenting involves more than enforcing rules. It’s about teaching children values and life skills that will guide them long after they’ve left home. Tune in to discover how intentional conversations, respect, and understanding can build a foundation that equips children to make wise decisions and remain grounded in what truly matters.
