Part 3 of our series The Conspiracy Against the Family focuses on the demise of society.  Listen as host Michael Folkes highlights the crucial role of fathers and mothers in the lives of their children and their impact on society.  When parents or guardians fail to rear children in the reverence and discipline of God, the consequences are detrimental to society.  However, when parents raise children based on God's instructions, children are much more likely to become decent, loving, and responsible adults.  Illustrations are given from the Bible.
