What is neglected in one generation is abandoned by the next.
Summary
The sermon addresses the dangerous trend of de-prioritizing church attendance, citing common excuses like sports and travel. This consistent neglect of gathering with God's people, a principle illustrated by the biblical concept of sowing and reaping, can multiply into the next generation, leading children to see church as optional. The takeaway is that compromises in our own spiritual disciplines inevitably impact our children's faith, with what is neglected in one generation often abandoned by the next.
