Our children

How do we train up our children to love the pursuit of holiness? For one, to love holy things, they need to know what these are.  To love holy things means to love those things that will purify our souls and draw us to God.  Meaning also they need to learn to not love unholy things.  This is tough to do in modern America, with the constant barrage of godless media and instant gratification.
What is best way to teach them to love the pursuit is holiness? It's definitely not by lecturing them. They need to see us loving this, first and foremost. The details of how to pursue this needs to be put before them. Fortunately, the church has the tools to do so, and the church is eager to move us this way.
Of course, one of the most difficult aspects of all this is their maturity level.  The pursuit of holiness is very hard work and a serious matter of self denial and an attention to things not material.  Children are immature and "play" focused.  This is a big obstacle to overcome.
Probably the best place to start in all of this is to pray for them.  St Seraphim of Sarov has a great love for children. We should ask for his intercession.
