Join us as we tackle the crucial topic of biblical inerrancy and inspiration, particularly its impact on the faith of younger generations. We explore how the vast number of biblical manuscripts available today provides us with a unique opportunity to affirm the accuracy of Scripture through textual criticism. Drawing insights from the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy, we aim to equip parents with practical tools to strengthen their children's faith against competing worldviews.

We highlight its historical accuracy, fulfilled prophecies, and unbiased portrayal of flawed individuals, underscoring how archaeological discoveries continue to affirm biblical accounts. We explore the unity of Scripture and its transformative power through the Holy Spirit, as well as Jesus' endorsement of its divine inspiration. We emphasize that inerrancy is deeply rooted in God's nature, as He cannot lie, establishing the Bible as an authoritative and reliable guide for life and morality. Furthermore, we caution against false teachers who distort Scripture for personal gain, encouraging listeners to measure their teachings against God's truth.

• What is infallibility?
