Like Produces Like | Pastor Chuck Swindoll

The choices you make in private become the legacy you leave in public. From the biblical account of Rehoboam, we learn a powerful truth: patterns reproduce themselves. This son didn't just inherit his father's throne—he inherited his father's failures, turning his life into an extravagant display of the same compromises he'd watched growing up. "Like produces like. Unfaithfulness produces unfaithfulness. A wandering eye produces children with wandering eyes." Your children—and those who look up to you—are watching and learning more than you realize. The good news? God can restore the years the locusts have eaten. But wouldn't it be better if the locusts never had to feast at all? Today is the day to choose differently—not just for you, but for those coming after you.
