When dads don't disciple their kids...

Three kinds of “single moms” exist in the church: the literal single mom who is raising children on her own, the mom whose husband is an unbeliever, and the mom whose husband professes belief but does not partner in the spiritual nurture of the family. 
For the true single mom and the mom married to an unbeliever, the task is clear: train your children in the Lord because no one else will. For the wife of the believing father guilty of spiritual absenteeism, the lines are blurry. 
The posts today and tomorrow are meant to help people think about spiritual leadership in their families.  
This post focuses on single moms
Tomorrow's post focuses on theological assumptions of family ministry
