When our children were young we took them to an Amish settlement in Pennsylvania and toured one of the museums about their culture. Our son tried on a boy's hat and sat in the "school room". I love that the Amish feel it's their duty to teach their children about God in addition to what they learn in their Amish schools about Him. But even more importantly, their whole community models the Christian walk by the way they conduct themselves. The rest of us have to deal with the outside influence of our modern secular society. It is more important than ever to actually train our children in the ways of the Lord and not leave it just to Sunday School teachers once a week.
