In this powerful Catholic conference talk, we dive deep into the challenges of raising wayward children and the spiritual tools parents can use to guide them back to the Faith. Every family has experienced the pain of children straying from their religious upbringing. But why does it happen—even in the strongest Catholic homes? And more importantly, what can parents do about it? Drawing from Scripture, Catholic tradition, and practical experience, this talk explores: ✝️ The crucial role of fathers in confirming the code (moral law) and cult (faith practices). ✝️ The mother’s role in daily catechesis, intellectual formation, and discipline. ✝️ Why lack of self-denial and discipline in modern family life leads to spiritual weakness. ✝️ Practical ways to instill virtues like prudence, temperance, chastity, and modesty. ✝️ The power of consistent prayer, sacramental life, and catechesis in forming strong Catholic children. ✝️ How to respond when children have already gone astray—with charity, firmness, and perseverance. ✝️ Prayers, consecrations, and devotions to Our Lady of Sorrows and St. Monica for wayward children. 💡 Learn how families can stay rooted in Christ through prayer, discipline, charity, and unwavering faith. 🙏 If you are a parent struggling with a wayward child, take hope—grace, prayer, and love can win them back. 📖 Scripture reminds us: “Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it” (Proverbs 22:6). 📌 Timestamps 0:00 Introduction & Free Will 1:00 Why Children Go Wayward 2:00 Father’s Role: Confirming Code & Cult 5:00 Mother’s Role in Formation 8:00 Lack of Virtue Formation in Modern Families 10:00 Decline of Self-Denial & Discipline 14:00 How to Preempt the Problem (Prayer & Catechesis) 19:00 When Children Have Already Gone Wayward 22:00 The Power of Binding Prayers & Consecration 23:00 St. Monica’s Example: Perseverance in Prayer 27:00 Grace, Conversion & Perseverance 28:00 Charity & Firmness in Dealing with Wayward Children 32:00 Conclusion & Final Encouragement https://oldnorwoodwines.com/our-wine/ - help support religious orders with wine (use code SFwine & free shipping when you buy a case) Fr.
