In Luke 7 in the Bible Jesus gives an incredible complement to a Roman Centurion soldier: "Not even in Israel have I found such faith." Wow. Wouldn't you love to have Jesus say that about you and your kids? So, who was this guy? He was humble and he understood his place in the world and Jesus' authority as God. That's one task of good parenting: Helping our children to humbly accept their place in the world while bowing to God's authority and power. Teaching that starts with us modeling it.
