Today's topic is all about anger. Is it right to get angry? What things should or shouldn't we be getting angry at? Let's study this topic further

I just want to let you know, we are here for you and if you ever need to chat please send us an email or visit our Contact page. We’ll happy to listen to what ever is on your mind.

This song is all about Hannah Kerr's new song Warrior. I absolutely love this song and what it's about. Take a listen

Today's topic is about marriages being restored. A marriage is meant to resemble Christ's love for us and God knows that we can get lost along the way. Humans aren't perfect, we mess up, luckily we have a merciful savior who realizes this and provides a path for us to take towards recovery - restoration. We may walk a way for a time but with God, what is broken can be restored. This marriage has definitely had it's moment in this: checkout Mathew West sharing this wonderful story behind his song Restored and see how God brought a marriage to success.

We are all so focused on our own problems in our lives that we aren't reaching out to others with their problems. We are the church and we hold hope in our lives by loving others but we aren't doing that. We focus too much on ourselves.

All the NeedToBreathe fans! Get ready, here's an exclusive video of Difference Maker by NeedToBreathe just for you. Let me know what you think!

How is your relationship with God? Are you hiding anything from Him? Are you speaking daily? Do you have full faith and trust in Him? Is there any shame keeping you from Him? Cast it out into the sea, so you can be together again. Remember when you first got saved? When God became your first and most true love? It's always good to go back to when it started. I'm always surprised to watch marriages and relationships in this world become so similar to the relationship God has with each of us. Of course it's not the same but the similarities are so hard not to notice. The bible really means it when it says "the husband is the head of the wife just as God is the head of the church." "Man should lay down his life for his wife and "sacrifice" just as Jesus did when he gave his own life on the cross." See the similarities? It's crazy! It makes you feel truly blessed to experience it. I look at marriage as a play or movie  that God has created to

Dear readers, today I am going to bring up a topic that is very important. As you read, please think about what is being said. Past Mistakes How many have made mistakes in their past that cannot be taken back? I can bet we all have at some point. The great news for us is that God can forgive us and we never have to hear about it again...or do we? Parents, your kids are going to make mistakes. Their going to do things they shouldn't do. Does that mean you should always remember what they did? You may never forget, it might be too hard, but the one thing you can do is not constantly bring it up and shove it in their face. Think about them first

So many people turn away the gift of eternal life because they're afraid it's too great a risk. "How do you know it's all really true." The question isn't what if there's nothing to gain, it's...what is there to lose? Follow Christ and you save your life "spiritually", deny Christ and lose your life (physically and spiritually). Yeah it could be a risk, it could be for nothing...but the alternative is for nothing also...so why turn away and accept knowing death, than accept the gift and receive everlasting life through faith. We don't have any proof heaven is real, but by faith we can know it is so. Weigh the cost, which would choose? Being a Christian (Christ Follower) comes with a price

We all have our priority list. Things that are important in our life.The thing is, God usually becomes before family...right? Well the bible does tell us that God should be the most important thing in our lives, which is true, but sometimes God becomes an "excuse" instead of an importance. We can't just pull the God card whenever we want to do something or even get out of something. We can't just neglect our family because of God, cause he would never want us to.

God has called us to be brave in this fearful generation. Will we choose to be bold or crumble under the pressure of evil? For many Moriah Peter fans they know her song Brave...here's a video of that song! It's a very great song and I absolutely love it. It's all about us being brave and courageous. Becoming warriors and soldiers for Christ!

Dear readers, please listen! This is my most important message I am going to be posting. So many people scream and shout in prayer to God saying "Why does God allow all this bad stuff to happen." I know this so well because I have been there before. I have been spiritually enlightened in my soul that He is not sitting by without care to our problems. In fact, he is beyond saddened by the way things have gone and the state we are in. When we are hurting and blaming God, he isn't shaking his head telling us to walk away...he's crying from his heart desperately trying to bring us home. He wants us to return to him  but it is us who are creating the gap between us and his loving presence. Think of all the heart breaks that could turn into healings, all the pain that could turn into prodigal parties. God wants us whole but without him we are in pieces and he wont stop until we finally find our way back home. Lets give God some rest and do the work ourselves...turn to God.

That is the topic. What are kids for? What would your answer be? Were they really given to us to serve our every need? "Well they can learn something from it." Well what if they were meant to really teach us? I think I may have gotten some head scratches right there...but it's true think about it. How many times do kids say things that just shock or surprise us. Maybe the reason they learn so easy is because they are teaching tools to help us parent them...What if moms and dads lived the way they would want their kids to live? How many times do you notice your kids do something and you think "Where did you pick that up from?" more than likely they'd reply "you mom/dad." Please if you have any questions or need advice about this, contact us! Families every where should know that your kids behavior depends on your own behavior. How can your child be calm with hectic parents? Think about it

What do you think God wants from you? Do you think he wants you to be perfect? To find the best job, buy the best car, find the most expensive house? What if he just wants YOU...to be here with him. I recently watched the new Winnie The Pooh movie called Christopher Robin. In the movie, Christopher Robin was an adult and worked a lot. He tried to get the best for his family and he had a great job, but his family wasn't satisfied with him. It had appeared he had failed them, what more could he do? I think the best answer is "just be here." In the movie his wife stated how he was never there anymore. "I haven't seen you smile in a long time" she stated. "How could she be so unpleased if he was so successful?" The problem is, he may be successful career wise but he wasn't succeeding his family. They didn't need him to win some promotion or climb the financial ladder, they simply wanted his presence. What if that's what God wants from all o

Do you ever feel like your pain doesn't matter to God? Like your voice is too small for God to notice your shouts of pain? I am here to tell you that He does care. Let me share my story: When I was about 12 my family moved about an hour from where we were living. I had mixed emotions about the situation. In the beginning I thought it would be terrible like in the movies (you know, when the kid moves and has to change schools and loses all their friends). Then I began thinking, "I can probably invite friends over more." When we first moved everything was okay for a few weeks. As months passed by, things became not as great. My original fear began happening. I lost all the friends I had grown up with, we left our "school" and our church. Suddenly I found myself living like in the movies. I had lost it all and I'd lost myself in the midst. The loneliness and pain gripped tightly to me, wrapping me in a mental darkness. I found myself lonely, depressed and blam

It was my mom and dad's birthday these past two weeks so to show you guys some sweet family moments here is videos I have made for their birthdays

Imagine if God texted you or He was sitting by you while having a conversation. What would it be like? What would you say? How would you act? Would you tell anybody about this occurrence?

I am a huge Rend Collective fan! They are an awesome band and have great songs. My top favorite song would be Counting Every Blessing so here it is for you guys

Have you suffered any loss in your life? What about recently? If you have suffered loss then you are in the same boat as many and you are not alone. The song How Great The Father's Love For me says: How great the pain of searing loss "the father turns his face away as wounds which mar the chosen one bring many sons to glory" this quote lets us know that Jesus knows what it is to suffer. He suffered more than we could ever yet he still loved through the power of God. You may questioning right now if God loves you, or if he is still with you, but I want to let you know that He sees every tear, every heartache and every fear. You are not alone no matter what and He loves you!

What exactly is "The American Dream?" It definitely is not what people think it is. When people become successful in their worldly pursuits they say they are living The American Dream but if that is our country's dream then how are we any different from other countries? To me I honestly deep down believe that the true American Dream is living in honest Godly love not trying to judge others but judge ourselves so that we may be seen as holy unto God. Take a trip down memory lane to when the Pilgrims were here and founded this country. The constitution, the Emancipation Proclamation, what did they all state? It was freedoms but not just freedoms from slavery and racial exclusions but also most of all religious freedom. To be free to live out your life for God is truly living and it is the truest form of success. Not going to grad school with the highest diploma, or buying the most expensive car...not even finding the best house. It's all about finding the best thing any

In my life there is one thing I have learned: When I got saved I realized I didn't need to ask God to come into my life. That's why it's called accepting Him into your life. He's already sent the invitation, you just have to accept. Realizing that God already wants to be in my life and I just need to allow Him to, really gives me a different perspective.

Almost in tears as I write this, I have been thinking about how much God loves me...How much He loves us. I can't even fathom how He can love even after He's been wronged so many times. We can't even stand to look at the face of those whose done wrong against us but God looks at us with a smile on His face because He loves us and always will. True love from God really has no end no matter what and How Deep The Father's Love For Us is a song that brings peace and joy to my soul.

Calling all prayer warriors!  My family and I are on a search for our new home and it's up in the air right now. There's one house we're really interested in but it's not for sure right now. We need as many people as we can to commit to just saying a small prayer for us that God's will would come through and if it's meant to be our house we will get it and if not, we will find the one. We are trusting in God with this situation and we need all the prayer we can. It is greatly appreciated. Is there anyway we can pray for you? Please let us know in the comments

Remember the moment you walked down the aisle to your loved one and it felt like only the two of you. The love that was felt was overwhelming. Maybe things have now dimmed down from that. Try going back to that time and remembering it with your spouse when things become tough. It brings back the happy memories and reminds you why you said I do. The main goal in marriage is to never think about yourself in any moment but about the two of you (US).

To think that the creator of the universe, controller of the sea, would ever think about us enough to care is overwhelming. Not only does He care but He wants to save us. Even the smallest tear catches His eye and tugs at His heart. To think the highest of kings would send His ONLY son to die on the cross for things that were wrong just because He loved us is indescribable. No love could be perfectly like it, only simply a mirror version of it. He truly does love us. Let the truth sink in while you listen to Strong Enough To Save by Tenth Avenue North.

Our husbands (or wives) aren't perfect and they're not always who we need them to be but it is so relieving to know God always holds our heart. When we're heart broken, when someone's let us down, even when somebody doesn't know how to be there for us. God hols our heart and Tenth Avenue North points this out in their song Hold My Heart. Here it is!

What is the Key to Resolving Conflict? That is a great question and I most definitely have an answer for you. Let's take a look These images are from Google Images and I am going to use them to represent my point take a look at these couples Do these couples look happy to you? Why do you think that is? "But people who are together longer become more happy with each other." Actually age and experience has nothing to do with how happy a couple is together. These couples have experienced conflict but none of them are speaking to each other. This, Communication, seems to be the key of a happy marriage. Take a look: These couples might not be the happiest but don't they look less stressed then the others? I wonder why... When communication isn't happening, nothing is being resolved...therefore the two are unhappy with each other and a wait is on them. It could be hurt feelings, pain, fear, or any number of feelings/thoughts. The opposite is sa

As you can probably tell by the title, this post is all about our insecurities. Love triangles or "Affairs" are one of the big sources for insecurities in relationships. Many of times we are far too quick to assume the worst in a situation. We see a girl talking flirtatiously with our man and we suddenly think he's flirting too. Sometimes that is the case but not always. These doubts and fears are things we cannot always avoid but we can avoid assuming the outcome. Assuming has never fixed anything and your relationship will not be pardoned from this. Talk with your boyfriend or partner about what is going on. If you talk it through then it's more likely to be sorted out rather than blaming him and making him feel you don't trust him. Maybe he is untrustworthy here but allow him to tell you himself. Same goes for the men as well, do not assume your wife or girlfriend is at fault. Always talk to the other person...as you know communication is important to r

I was reading in my devotional book today called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young and this is the word I got today: "In closeness to Me, you are safe. In the intimacy of My presence, you are energized. No matter where you are in the world, you know you belong when you sense my nearness. Ever since the Fall, man has experienced a gaping emptiness that only My presence can fill. I designed you for close communication with your Creator. How I enjoyed walking in the garden with Adam and Eve, before the evil one deceived them! When you commune with Me in the garden of your heart, both you and I are blessed. This is My way of living in the World - through you! Together we will push back the darkness, for I am the Light of the World." After reading this it moved me to tears and my heart ached. I began longing for God and realizing the distance I've had from Him. So many times we don't realize how far away we are from someone until we stop to look at it. Life was so e

It is said that as a mother you cannot be best friends with your kids because your a “mom” not a friend, but what does that mean? I believe these kind of things are what makes kids so depressed and rebellious. We aren’t there for them, we don’t show them love enough. I believe a mom should be a best friend to her kids. Their may be tough times but what relationship doesn’t have tough times? It’s important that we don’t miss the meaning of parenting, but if you just asked yourself “what is the meaning?” Then we’re already doing it wrong. Many seem to think their kids are there to serve them. “That’s what I had you for” mother’s seem to claim when they ask their kids to work. Listen, kids do not have chores so they can do what you don’t want to...it is so they can learn what responsibility is. If they need some help, help them. We become parents to teach our kids not use them. If anyone does the serving it should be us to our kids. I get so sad when I see parents using their kids like it

  I will greatly rejoice in the Lord, My soul shall be joyful in my God. For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation. He has covered me with the robe of righteousness. Isa 61:10 God clothes us in His robe of righteousness. He delights when we live around his protection. We may go astray some day, but God always calls us back home. Nothing in this world can ever be greater than what God gives, for He is the greatest of all. Don't ever forget your worth or why you follow Him.

I challenge you to be thankful this whole week. When you start taking things for granted, start thinking of how thankful you are.

I took a listen to this song and it definitely encouraged me. Hope your faith is strengthened too!

What a better truth then to know that God always loves us. Among The Thirsty knows a lot about that and shares it in their song Over and Over. I took some time to listen to the lyrics and peace sank over me. I hope you find peace and joy in this song like I did. Take a listen, share it with friends and family, and may it be a blessing to you today :)    <3 always remember God loves you.

Hey there guys! my girl Emma Swan is here from Once Upon A Time to give us some really good advice! Please enjoy and I hope you learn something from it. Hi, I'm Emma Swan! My story was told on Once Upon A Time, a show that's on ABC. For this post I am going to be sharing a video of Killian and I's story of how we got together and finally married. Then I'll put some advice based on what we experienced and went through. I'm thinking about making a blog based off of our real experiences so we can share our opinions on certain topics with you guys, and Killian  will post too! Watch the video and read my advice and tell me if you'd read my blog. I love Killian so much! Here is my advice on five topics! 1. Staying together through the good and the bad (even life and death). "How do you stay together through the rough times?" You've all seen our moments when I got taken by the darkness, or Killian (and I) literally went through death and back. The

>> Watch this!  << Danny Gokey's story is inspirational! His song masterpiece is a great song that tells about how God creates a masterpiece in us through the pain. "Heart trusts you for certain, head says it's not working." This quote is part of the song and it is very true. Take a listen and put your faith in God!

Recently I have been listening to some new songs that are great! Some of them might be older but new to me. Hopefully God will speak to you through this today. You might need encouragement, hope, peace, love...I hope you find it :) Fear does not own you! You are free. As you go through this week, sing this song!!  Your chains shall be broken I recently heard this song and I love it!! You are God's master piece even if your cleaning up after the messy kids (and sometimes the biggest kid in the house), or finishing a project last minute. You are a work of art and you are priceless! God loves you with a reckless love. Your family, friends or this world may make you feel like you are not loved but you are so loved!! There is no one More Beautiful than you. It may hurt, the pain might be deep...But God A . L . W . A . Y . S has a good reason. Think positve because it brings you to God. When it hurts there’s a real good reason. "You let me be where I’ve b

"Fight For You", what does this quote mean? It should resemble all relationships but there are too many that are far from it. What does it mean to fight for somebody? When you think of the word "love", what comes to your mind? Maybe you picture a scene in the top romance movie, or maybe the couple holding hands on the street "they must be in love right?" So many people have this idea that love is a magical thing. Like in fairytales...the "Happily Ever After" but I'm sorry to tell you: If Cinderella and Prince charming were to be married in real life, their story would be more complicated than that. The things is that so many people want that type of relationship, friendship or marriage where everything is perfect and goes smoothly. That, however, is not how things work out. We have flaws, there are struggles, and we have to make a choice to stay with our loved ones regardless of the circumstances and atmosphere. Jesus was the perfect resembla

This is a great activity to do with your family and even the kids can get involved! We all know that unless we put the bible into practice everyday, we will never live the right way. How do we go about putting the bible into practice? If we do not look at it as something we have to do but something we enjoy doing, it will be much easier. Everyday pick a piece of paper that describes an attribute of love or a command (make it extra fun by drawing one of each everyday) and try to do it throughout the whole day. The person who does his challenge completely earns the reward for the week. You can also add prayer to the daily challenge as well. Write down names to pray for and pick one out for the day. Each day pick a new one.

You've been married for some time now and you want to keep the spark alive, what are some things you can do? That's easy! 1. Love Poem I know even the name sounds scary. It's really not so bad. A good idea is to write down all the things you feel or like about your partner and read them to each other. 2. L.O.V.E Is A Four Letter Word I think you know what this means. Write out the word "love" on a piece of paper like this: L O V E and then next to each other make it into a word. It can be things you like about your partner...ETC It should look like this: Lovely One Viable Excellent 3.Who Am I? Do you know a lot about your partners family/friends? Try this game! Write a bunch of names on a piece of paper and cut them out. Then fold them and put them into a hat. Then try giving clues or acting out the name you got and see if your partner can guess which of your friends/family members you are trying to be. You must act out one of your own family m

Many people ask the question "how do I teach my kids to do right and to stop doing wrong?" There are tons of sites that you can get the answer to this question from and they can be helpful, but sometimes and it can be hard to know how to apply them to our lives and families. I am going to give you the clearest answer through an example: There is only one sun in the morning, and at night there is only one moon...sure there are tons of stars hanging around the moon but without the moon and without the sun we wouldn't be able to see. Our lives as parents represent this. As parents we are like the sun and the moon, giving light to our children to guide them and show them the right way. If our light is out and we aren't acting the way we should or the way we want them to, then their going to have a hard time acting the right way. Other people are like stars to our children. They may have some friends or relatives that can show them some light but ours was meant to be the

There is one attribute of a godly family that stands out over them all; That is love. Love is the greatest thing a family can show the world. The sad part is, it's not shown much anymore. People are only thinking about themselves and not all the other people first. One of the biggest problems we have is children growing up to become violent seekers or trouble makers because they aren't shown the right love at home. That doesn't mean they're treated horribly, but sometimes all it takes is parents who don't know what they're doing (how to live the right way) to cause their child(ren) to become criminals. It's hard to blame those parents because sometimes their being taught that way by their own parents. Don't take only advice from your parents, or your family, but let God guide how you do things.

Hello, My name is Forest! I am the author of this blog and I thought I'd introduce myself and share a little about me. I started this blog not to get noticed but to share knowledge that I have gained through Christ with others. My goal is to reach families and start a revolution! One thing that makes me different from most people is the unique view I have in life. I call it my perspective. In every situation in life I remind myself that God always has a good plan and in the end he always does. In my life I have been captivated by the amazing works that God has brought into my life through my pain. When things seem to get tough, I know I am right where God wants me to be. To some people, going through storms in life would seem like God doesn't care...but I see it in a positive way. He wouldn't let me go through a rainstorm unless he knew their would be a rainbow in the end. He wouldn't allow me under the crashing waves unless he could see the tropical shore ahead. Life

Servant, that is one word many people tend to view negatively. Even Christians seem to find this word unsettling, but why is it that we see it this way? In this world serving someone else is looked upon as a lowly thing. We are taught that we are who matters most. Serving is actually the most righteous thing anyone could do. In John 13:1 Jesus gave a perfect example of serving by washing his disciples feet. In fact the very man whose feet Jesus washed, belonged to the man who would betray him. We all want peace in this world and that is accomplished when we serve others. We must do what is difficult. It is put perfectly in Romans 7:19 "I want to do what is good, but I don't. I don't want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway." The point is, we do whatever is easy. We take the short and simple road hoping we'll make it through. Going the easy way isn't always the best way. Getting everything immediately, isn't always beneficial. Going with what everyone e

Today our topic is joy! The main point I want to state is that Joy is not quite the same thing as happiness...I know that's probably a big shocker! But it really is completely true. The difference is that one lasts and the other fades but only comes at certain times. A perfect analogy of this would be: Take two different types of marriages. 1. there is love in the relationship but that love depends on what is benefitted by the relationship or how easy things are. Once things get rocky, the feeling goes away and you just give up. That was never true love. 2. This one is much more firm. When the grounds are shaken to the fullest, both remain to stand in what is called true love and faith in God. Joy is just like the second marriage. Even though the world is stormy and dark around you, there is still calmness inside your heart that comes only by trusting fully in God. Happiness is like the first, when things become difficult you let your peace slip away. Being stressed about a situa

Hello, I am Forest. I work here at FamilyFaithWisdom and most of the posts you see are written by me! I wanted to share some knowledge with you all that I have and I think the kids especially will love this one. Okay! So I'm going to guess each of you are a responsible child who does everything their parents say (like me), and as they always say "you reap what you sow." If my guess is right, and your like me, then you have been wondering why that doesn't seem to be true for you. My whole life I have been the good kid. Always doing what I'm told, doing things to surprise people and make them happy! Don't get me wrong, I'm not perfect and I have messed up more times than I could count. But the point is that I am (for the most part) a very reliable, trustworthy, and faithful person. Someone says to do something, I do it immediate whether I want to or not. Rarely do I ever show that I don't want to. The thing is...for being such a goodie two shoes I would

 In so many (almost every) home there is some form of technology. It's every where, but to be honest it can be very useful. Everyday chores are made easier by having machines do normal actions  that would be a hassle. It's very efficient and gives you more time. Other devices such as a TV or Computer are definitely not needed but do make life more easier. It's definitely more of an opinion more than it is a fact, that most people use these entertainment devices too often. In restaurants you'll see kids or even adults playing games or doing who knows what. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but there are families out there that live in this "time" that would like to know how to spend more quality time with their family. Some people plain out just don't care and that's fine. If you don't care about how much time is spent on devices then you can just skip this whole thing. But if you're sitting there thinking to yourself "I wonder how I c

Have you ever heard You Wont Relent by Jesus Culture? The whole message of the song is that God wont relent in pursuing us until he's reached us to the full 100%. Just like in our relationship with God, in all our relationships and families we should be relentless. Never giving up until we've succeeded. The best way to mend wounds and survive life is to stay and fight together. We'll never make it alone and I believe we were never created to. Even the first man, Adam needed somebody with him to help him. Not to say he was incapable of doing it on his own, but God knew he needed someone with him. We all are here to show God's love to this world and the best way we can do that is by sticking with each other instead of against each other.

When your upside down what does the world look like? Doesn't it make you feel like the world is upside down? Many say "why is the world upside down?" and they usually get the response "It isn't, you are." This is our perspective of many things in life. We see things one way but maybe they are really the other way. To get my point across better, here are two songs for you. They are both by Josh Wilson. Before The Morning and Fall Apart.

”we’ll get through this together.” Picture this: you and your spouse next to each other, hand in hand. There’s no better place than that. You feel at home and safe. You never want to leave his side. Than the storm comes. Life puts hurdles between you two to try and break you apart but it doesnt succeed. Through the strongest wind, the darkest night, you remain together til the end. Even when an opportunity comes to dance in the sun, you stay in the storm cause that’s where you belong...together.  For you two it doesn’t matter where you, all that matters is your with each other. This is what a Godly marriage should look like. It’s that choice to stay during the rain when you could leave and enjoy rainbows and sun. That is what Love is. It’s staying through the tough times. Loving your husband when he can’t even love himself.  Staying when he doesn’t feel he deserves you. Picking up after the kids when you already did the last week. That moment you stood at the alter and said I do, was t

"you got to do it all," this is the answer we get when asking "How do I change the world?" but the truth is we don't have to do everything. Most often we look at all the opportunities that we don't have and think we cant serve in the place we're in. Our situations can be used to help others and we can help people where we are now. Everyday the little moments in our life, are opportunities to do things that show God's love to the world. That is how we change the world, one little step at a time. We look at an action and decide it's too small to make any difference but it really can make a change.

What are your dreams? How do you picture your family in the future? Your spouse? Your career? In the moment you are in right now, you can make changes in your life to have the best life you were meant for

Ever heard Rumplestiltskin's famous quote "So Dearie ask yourself, how far are you willing to go?" So many parents tend to do what ever they can to keep their children safe, even if it's going against God. His plan is the best and regardless of how dangerous the situation may seem, God knows what He is doing. Sometimes we even hurt others just so our kids can stay protected. We are the care takers for kids but most importantly, we are their teachers and everything we do shows them how to act in that situation and can impact their life in the future. Be careful this week as you care for your kids and teach them great lessons.

We all know the story of David and Goliath. Now lets say your child is David and God has told him to go defeat Goliath. He comes to you saying just how big Goliath is and that he is going to do it because God has told him to. What would you tell him? Would you let him? Many would say "No way! I'm protecting my son. I'm not going to let him go, it's too dangerous" but is that just a lie your telling yourself? Maybe its the enemy trying to stop your son from doing something great. "But I want to keep him safe. What if he dies out there" you say with worry in your heart. Does God suddenly not have control anymore? So many parents face challenges that leave them at a cross road: "Do I let my child go defeat Goliath and trust God, or do I take control and tell him it's too dangerous?" Sometimes this moment of decision can have an impact on the way we teach our child about faith. In David's situation God was completely in control. If David ha

People have many opinions of what marriage is or what it should look like, but the truth is...no one ever gets close to what it really is. Marriage is such a complex thing. Many think its just a romantic matter and some think other things. Many people simply have no clue at all. In order to make it work and last we have to know what it exactly is. The dictionary has a definition of this topic: Marriage - Noun 1. The legally or formally recognized union of two people as partners in a personal relationship 2. A combination or mixture of TWO or more objects Marriage is a combination of two people connected as one but it goes deeper than that. How do you achieve that oneness? Many use things such as having a baby or keeping up their intimate life to grow and strengthen their bond but the probably is that it's not the third part of the equation. The problem is that Marriage is a mix of three parts that bind into one through the power of Love but what is this third compound? Words

Disobedience, Rebellion, Disrespect...parents use these words as excuses. Sometimes we find resistance in what they tell us to do or not to do and parents say don't disobey/disrespect me. Yes they are our authority but instead of fighting resistance, I think we should start thinking about and really questioning resistance. They tell us to do something but we hesitate, not to be disobedient but to ponder if it really is the right action "for us". Don't get me wrong, "parents know best" is a true statement but they are also human. It is possible for parents to get it wrong every once in a while. This isn't saying question everything your parents are telling you, it just means occasionally be open minded. Sometimes our parents try to keep us safe or give us our best but sometimes its only for their sake. They get afraid to lose us so their mind makes up that its for our best...but when that resistance comes that's when your mind (and hopefully theirs to

Patience is very important because without it there is so much we can't do

Understanding is a hard word, isn't it? To understand someone else's opinion or point of view you must put down yours for the time being. It can be hard, no doubt but it is necessary to keep a stable relationship with whom ever.

Many parents have their way of doing things...I propose we do things In A Different Way here are some ways parents DO their things The "Empowerment" Way 1. Because I can, because I said so The "Comparison" Way 2.  So and So would never do that! Why can't you be like (name here). The "Simple" Way   3. your grounded. I'm taking your phone! Go to your room! Tell your dad (tell your mom) These ways can work (they often do, ask any parent!) but we aren't here to do it the EASY way, we're here to teach our kids. The truth is...some kids don't learn from the Easy Way but most parents aren't willing to try any other way. They use excuses like "it worked for them...it works on my other kid(s). They just don't take the time. Then parents are left wondering "why do my kids never listen?" The problem is that kids aren't being taught. Sure, these methods work a lot but that doesn't guaranteed that every ki

Before we get on with this post I want you to do something. We're going to create a list. This list can be about someone you love (a spouse, friend, family member). It can include all the things you like about them or all the things you would like someone to have...they must all be positive! Maybe its super strength, or beautiful long hair...or even no flaws! You would like this person wouldn't you? What if we turned it around. Now this list consists of only negative things such as bad breath, fear, anxiety, weaknesses...would you like this person? My guess is probably not. Once we switched the lists around, the results were clear, but why is that? The probably is that we don't want flaws and we don't want anyone with flaws. Once someone starts having negative attributes we begin to turn around on them but what if we stayed with them? What if we loved them for their flaws? We constantly try to find things that we don't like about people but the truth is, I'm sur
