I just had a brief conversation with someone who is a first generation Christian.
His parents and his parents' parents were not followers of Christ. As I shared about the idea of "passing the baton" Sunday, he said something hit him in a huge way, and that out of the message he experienced some major healing.
First generation Christians are some of my heroes. Thanks to my heritage, this parenting thing is much easier (not easy, but much easier). Those seeking to live out, invest and teach something that was not modeled to them is tough.
It's also awesome, because first generation Christians may very well be on the verge of a new relay race for the Kingdom.
If you come from a family or families with great spiritual heritage, rejoice in the blessing. If you are a first generation follower of Christ, rejoice in your opportunity!
