We all have one thing in common, regardless of who we are, where we live, or what our ambitions
are: a heritage. That is a social, emotional, and spiritual inheritance from one generation to the next. Every
one of us is given a heritage, lives it out, and passes it on to our children. It isn't a viable choice. Parents
leave a legacy to their children, whether it is good, negative, or a combination of the two.
A spiritual, emotional and social legacy is like a three-stranded cord. Individually, each strand cannot
hold much weight. But wrapped together, they are strong. That’s why passing on a positive, affirming legacy
is so important and why a negative legacy can be so destructive. The good news is that you, with God’s
help, can decide to pass a positive legacy on to your children whether you received one or not.
Today, if we don't consciously leave our children a legacy that is consistent with our views, our
culture will pass along its own, often leading to a negative end. It's crucial to remember that passing down a
spiritual, emotional, and social legacy is a process rather than an event. As parents, we are responsible for
the process. God is responsible for the product.
Emotional Legacy - is something that is conceived and modeled throughout one's life. As one grows older,
this legacy can hold greater meaning when time seems to race by. It's about who we are as individuals, what
we have to contribute, what we value, and what we want others to know about us.
Social Legacy - In order to prosper, our children need to gain the insights and social skills necessary to
cultivate healthy, stable relationships. Children must learn to relate to family members, teachers, peers, and
friends as they get older. They must eventually learn to communicate with coworkers as well as a variety of
other people, including salespeople, bankers, mechanics, and managers.
Spiritual Legacy- Parents who successfully pass along a spiritual legacy to their children model and
reinforce the unseen realities of the godly life. We must recognize that passing a spiritual legacy means more
than encouraging our children to attend church, as important as that is. The church is there to support parents
in raising their children but it cannot do the raising; only parents can.
5 Ways to Improve Family Relationships
Talk together
Speaking with the people closest to you is one of the best methods to get to know them. Talk about your
dreams, hopes, and aspirations with your partner and children on a regular basis. Ask them interesting
questions about their lives to learn more about who they are. You might be surprised by what you discover.
Eat together
This goes hand in hand with talking together. Find a meal each day, or at the least some times per week,
that everybody can get together for. Make something that everyone likes and facilitate discussions among
own family members Let everyone turn off their electronic devices and communicate with each other. You
don't have to do too much. Start with genuine interest, and then start from there.
Have one-on-one time with each family member
Talking to each other like family is great. but don’t forget to spend time with each family member
individually. Go for a walk or play a game. It's as simple as asking them what they want to do in half an

hour. Don't worry about the amount of time you spend together, but worry about the quality of your time
together. Maybe they can even teach you something you didn't know before.
Have a family night each week
Eating together is a fantastic time for the whole family to enjoy time with one another. However, it is also
important to make time each week for the family to do something together. In the digital age, it's easy to get
distracted and get away from family members. Take the time to go to a child’s soccer meet as a family or go
get ice cream together. It doesn’t have to be big or expensive. Just make it meaningful.
Get some alone time
Being constantly surrounded by your partner and children might be exhausting. Remember to set aside some
time each week for yourself, especially during the summer when the kids are at home. It doesn't have to be
long; all that matters is that you're doing something you enjoy and find satisfying.
Research shows that families that spend time together stay together. Remember to be happy for the little
things in daily life and find your own happiness in the process.
