#359 What Do I Say When …? A Parent’s Guide to Navigating Cultural Chaos for Children and Teens with Andrew Walker

The Good Citizen Podcast

If Christians parents do not teach and model a Biblical worldview to their children early and often, then culture will disciple them for us. We all recognize that swiftly changing culture is so pervasive and persistent that it finds its way past the protective walls of our homes, schools, and churches. So, how do we proactively raise our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord? In their recent book What Do I Say When, Andrew and Christian Walker draw on their experiences as (respectively) Christian ethicist and teacher and as parents to provide a practical guide for busy parents raising kids in the midst of cultural chaos.

Dr. Walker serves as Associate Dean in the School of Theology, and Associate Professor of Christian Ethics and Public Theology. He is also the Director of the Carl F. H. Henry Institute for Evangelical Engagement. Additionally, he is a fellow in Christian Political Thought at the Ethics and Public Policy Center and serves as the Managing Editor of WORLD Opinions. Walker joined the faculty of Southern Seminary in 2019. His previous appointment was Senior Fellow in Christian Ethics at the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission. He is married to Christian, and they have three children. He is a member of Highview Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky.
