Mother’s Day is a time for remembering our mothers. How should we relate to our moms? The Bible is full of advice to us about respecting them. Even King Solomon, the wisest and richest king to have ever lived, bowed to his mother and had her sit on a throne next to his.

Listen as Lead Pastor Paul Trimble talks about how mothers provide our basic foundations for life. They teach us, nurture us and shepherd us through our early years. God promises a reward for those children that honor and obey their parents.
