What Should We Say To Our Children About Politics?
November 3, 2010
Can I say anything good? Well, yesterday was election day and having just gone through another political season, I am sure politics is nearing the bottom of things we want to talk about with anyone right now! Still the question is a fair one, what do we want our children to learn from us about the world of politics and our responsibilities as citizens?

Real Self-Esteem
July 7, 2010
The wonder and innocence of childhood is a fragile and fleeting thing. The turns and tangles of the world beyond their parent's arms can be harsh and complex. The cultural pressure on children to abandon their innocence, grow up fast is enormous--and wrought with countless trials and tears. Self-esteem is the consequence of how we cope, what we believe, how we were raised and, most importantly, how we live. Children who have healthy self-esteem generally lead happier, more hopeful, and more productive...

Their ears and sanity have been assailed by the incessantly buzzing South...

He Sees It, Even If You Don’t

Scriptural Basis: "If I say, ‘Surely the darkness will hide me, and the light become night around me,’ even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. FOR you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb…My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body.” Psalm 139:11-13, 15-16 Application: Seven...
