From the time her three children were young, \u201cFull House\u201d actress Candace Cameron Bure prioritized instilling biblical principles in them and modeling a life of service to the Lord, and it\u2019s this guidance that has continued to guide them into adulthood.<\/p>\n

The 47-year-old actress, whose children are now adults, told The Christian Post, \u201cWe\u2019re definitely in a time of a culture war, and I think the best thing that any of us can do as parents is to be consistent and that we actually walk our walk and we show it by example and not just talk the talk. It\u2019s a lot easier said than done because those little eyes are always watching you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bure continued, \u201cMommy and daddy are the biggest examples in life, so they\u2019re always watching to see what you\u2019re going to do. If you as a parent can walk with consistency and back up your words with your actions, that speaks volumes, and your children will know that it doesn\u2019t go unnoticed by them, ever. That consistency through life will play out; I truly believe that.\u201d One way Bure instilled biblical principles in her children was with daily Scripture and incorporating its teachings, like the fruits of the Spirit, into everyday life.<\/p>\n

She said, \u201cI trained my kids up with biblical values, and the Bible is where we started and what we continue to read today. Even when my kids were young, I had the fruit of the Spirit lettered on their walls to remind them of all of the fruit of the Spirit: joy, love, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, self-control. We talk about those things. The Bible tells us to \u2018train up a child in the way they should go and when they are old, they won\u2019t depart from it.\u2019 I believe in intentional parenting. We taught out of the Bible, and I\u2019m grateful to see that I have adult children today who are all following that road and that path, loving the Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n
