Roderick Oliver Redman was born on 17 July 1905 at Rodborough, Stroud, Gloucestershire, the son of Roderick George Redman and Elizabeth Miriam Annie Stone. He was the only boy in the family, having three younger sisters. His father owned and ran a small outfitter’s shop, normally employing two assistants, in George Street, Stroud. The shop had belonged to his father before him, and its speciality was made-to-measure tailoring and especially shirt-making. Redman senior’s interest, however, lay not in his business but in his church work. He was a Nonconformist with a fine faith, which found its greatest practical realization in a lifetime of enthusiastic service through the local Baptist church in John Street, Stroud. His love of music—which he transmitted to his family—was accompanied by an exceptional talent which he placed at the disposal of the church, where he was organist from 1897 to 1907 and choirmaster from 1900 to 1924. Mbreover, he was a teacher at the Sunday School from the age of 17, and Superintendent from 1913 to 1937 5 and he was the church treasurer from 1925 to 1951. Thus Redman was brought up in a strongly religious atmosphere—to quote his own words, ‘in what I can only describe as the best of the Puritan tradition, to which I believe British science owes more than it has ever cared to acknowledge’.

The role of parents for their children in spiritual growth is very important, and starting from an early age, teaching for children's spiritual growth is not only given to the church, or during Sunday school services but the most important and most important is the role of parents in the family for her children. If noted, there are still many parents who do not realize the importance of their role as parents to educate the spiritual growth of their children. Therefore through this paper, we try to remind the important role of parents in the growth of children.

The family is an institution of God Himself (Genesis 2:18-25) aside from the church (Matthew 16:18) obtaining a glorious mandate through God's family to want the birth of Divine offspring (Malachi 2:15), which is a God-fearing and living in its prescribed streets. To achieve the above goal, a Christian Religious  Education of faith became something very important. But unfortunately there are Christian families who are unaware of this and are shifting this glorious mandate to the church through sunday school teachers or transferring it to school (through Christian religious teachers). The writer assesses this distraction on the one hand as a parent's misunderstanding of the mandate or on the other hand because of the parents' inability to handle it. The method the writer uses is a descriptive qualitative with a library approach. The writer tapped relevant resources from the bible, books and journals. Starting with a general understanding and juridis about the family, the Biblical basis of the family and its calling, the family's responsibility for Christian Religious Education and the danger of displacing the function of Christisn Religious Education on the third hand and the writer will eventually conclude that it is important to restore the family's function as a base of Christian Religious Education as well as to accord with scriptural values to be so effective in reaching the goal of bearing Divine offspring.

Norman Bertram Marshall came from a family that had lived for generations in the small village of Great Shelford, near Cambridge, and was born there in a house built by his father (a builder, as his grandfather had been). Freddy (as he was universally known in later life) was the eldest of three boys and one girl. One of his brothers became an entomologist, the other an architect. The family was not well off, particularly after his father had left for the trenches in France with the Cambridgeshire Regiment before Freddy was born. To supplement his mother's income, Freddy worked in the fields after school and in the holidays, leading horses. He entered the church school in the village in 1920, but he was more interested in trying to catch dace and roach than in his schooling and was evidently rather a trial to his teachers. When his Sunday school teacher, Percy Reed, said T command the Devil to leave this place Freddy felt this was aimed at him and got up and left.

Frank Dickens was born on 15 December 1899 in Northampton, the youngest of six children, five boys and a girl. His father, William John Dickens, was a master currier and leather merchant, whose family all came from Walgrave or the adjacent Northamptonshire village of Holcot. According to some notes written by one of his brothers, the village church records show that ‘in 1750 a Stephen Dickens paid five shillings for No. 9 pew in Walgrave church’. His mother, Elizabeth Ann ( née Pebody), came from a long line of millers and farmers who, from about 1630 onwards, had lived only a few miles outside Northampton, at Rothersthorpe and later Harpole Mill. His father’s family were firmly nonconformist, whereas his mother’s side was Church of England. Frank has recorded that ‘this did not seem to have caused any difficulties’, but his upbringing was strict and he was taught to think that alcoholic beverages were very wrong. His father was a lay preacher in the Baptist church at Walgrave and took an active part in all the affairs of the church, including playing an instrument in, and conducting, the village band. He must also have had considerable business abilities and ambition, for by the time he was 43 years of age he had gathered together from very small beginnings enough resources to build a fair-sized leather factory in Northampton, to which town the family had moved a couple of years earlier.
