Bonus: 7 steps to train your children
20/06/2015 Duration: 42minTrain up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 This is a very well known Scripture verse, especially when we are talking about how to train your children. I have heard a few different ideas of what this verse is teaching, and I think there is validity to each of them. Let's start with the definition of "train up" from the http://biblehub.com/hebrew/2596.htm (Strong's Exhaustive Concordance): A primitive root; properly, to narrow (compare http://biblehub.com/hebrew/2614.htm (chanaq)); figuratively, to initiate or discipline -- dedicate, train up. With that definition in mind, here are two interpretations of this verse that I've heard: The parents are to train their children in the way they feel is best, according to the Bible. The result will be that the children will stay with what they were trained when they are older. I believe that this is, with some further depth and understanding, the primary teaching of this verse.

210: Will you be a courageous father?
02/06/2015 Duration: 31minAny male can be a father...it takes a real man to be a dad. During the month of June, I am focusing on being a better father (and husband). Fathers Day is June 21st this year, and let's make this one the best one yet. In the movie, Courageous, the five main fathers joined together to make a commitment to become better fathers and husbands. The result was "The Resolution" that they pledged to keep. Fathers, the Providers One of the big responsibilities as a father is that of being a provider for your family. Many have the perception that this refers to financial obligations. But this involves so much more! Your family needs the financial provisions, but they also have spiritual, emotional, and psychological needs. Yes, Mom is important and helps to fulfill these needs as well, but too many fathers have been absent from these areas for too long. Growing up without a father in the home, I understand what I missed. I had some father-figures that entered my life later in life, and I'm a father now. As much
