    Enjoyable with much to agree with. However, much blame was rightly laid on parents and grandparents for the failure to instill Christian morality in children but, in truth, much blame also lies at the churches door. Why? Simply because it is a rarity that sermons such as this one are preached. The churches have fallen to secular, liberal leadership with the result that liberal mush is taught and sermons have also become mostly liberal mush. As was alluded to in this sermon, it is not politically correct to teach and preach the Christian message in plain words – to sound too much like an evangelical. Frankly, it makes it very much harder for parents to instill Christian morality and virtue in children when the churches no longer teach it or teach a watered down version of it. Also, I have to disagree about individual liberty. That was one of God’s greatest gifts to man and must be strenuously preserved.
