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...

What Is A Real Role Model?
May 5, 2010
It is easy to look at celebrities, athletes, anyone famous really and say, I want to be like them. More often than not, we look to those who are well known and hold them up to be role models, but are they really the best examples for us to follow? While athletes do spectacular things on the athletic field, and celebrities may be talented actors or actresses, does that mean they are the ones who should become the role models in our own lives or our children’s lives? More often than not the answer...

How can I best pray for my child?
October 2, 2009
As a parent, our greatest treasure is the child God has entrusted to us. We cannot make a more lasting investment than the spiritual qualities we nurture in our children. No other person holds a more influential key to molding our children than you have as a mother or father. Others may influence our children’s lives for good and for eternity, but God has created in every child a desire to look to his or her parents for love, security, and direction unlike any other people in his or her life. We have...

Will my child turn out okay?
September 18, 2009
By Glenda Anderson In Matthew 13, Jesus gives us the parable of the sower. The sower sows many seeds, many of which never reach their designed growth. Only a few good seeds thrive.

The ground needs to be carefully tilled and prepared; the right nutrients must be added to enhance each seed's growth. The rocks...
