In this final episode of the mini-series on what Scripture teaches about Asian American parenting, Danny and Monica look at Psalm 127:3 in relation to the Confucian upbringing that many Asian American parents were brought up within. They contrast this with Psalm 127:3, as well as the idea of parents being ambassadors of God to their children. They close with an exhortation on how repentance is part of the parenting process and sanctification journey in parenting.
