- Dietrich Bonhoeffer, quoted by Steve Froud in his blog today. Steve goes on to comment:
"...we are tempted to play God by making (our children) into our own image. Of course they will take after us and initially learn all that they know from their parents but each of them has their own unique future, hopefully shaped by God. We should become like stewards of a great treasure that is not our own and be ready to obey the one whose treasure it really is. Those instructions are given in some detail throughout the Bible and yet often as 'stewards' we know better and bow to contemporary or cultural thinking."
