"Before You Can Be Successful In The Workplace, You Have To Be Successful In The Home"

As I was reading this above titled American Thinker article by writer, Anthony DeChristopher, my eyes quickly focused on the above titled statement.

Regarding being successful in the home, Mr. DeChristopher goes on to say:

"If you neglect the home life, productivity in the workplace inevitably falls.  Trump's "America First" proposition is precisely that – it's time to take care of the American homeland."

Not only do we need to cease neglecting home life in a secular and economic sense, but in a spiritual sense as well. If productivity in the workplace inevitably falls, it's because that God's teaching on having a good work ethic is not being taught to children in the home.

What's the simple solution to the above problem? Teach potential fathers and mothers to be responsible for bringing children into the world before they have children, emphasizing the father's role in the upbringing of children (Ephesians 6:4 NLT).

Then as a society, we need to repent! (Jonah 3). As the writer of this article indicates, "Fathers need to repent of their abuse, failures through neglect, and abandonment. If fathers don’t repent and change, then not only will our social problems multiply, but we’ll be damned" (cf. Matthew 3:7-12).
