I take my seat on the top row of metal bleachers and peer across the football field. The high school band plays the familiar “Pomp and Circumstance” as the graduates begin their procession.

Prepare a Meal and Share God’s Love with Others
At home, our meals are simple. Homeschooling three children and chasing after a toddler has forced me to rethink meals.

It’s difficult for me to separate any memory I have of my father from the smell of Old Spice. For ... [keep reading]
Don’t Wait to Teach Your Child the Importance of Being Patient

In fact, being in short supply of patience often tops my list. There are times I beat myself up for how I’ve handled a situation or how I’ve behaved ... [keep reading]
When Your Heart is Breaking, Hold On for God’s Healing
Have you ever envisioned something a certain way only to have it turn out differently than you planned? How did you feel about that? Happy? Probably not. Disappointed? That’s more likely. Maybe you even felt disillusioned? That’s the way I felt in 1999 when my wife suggested we adopt ... [keep reading]
What Happens When You Can’t Hold it Together?
One of my favorite places on earth is unreachable without a four-wheel-drive, off-roading vehicle. You won’t see tour buses. No tickets are sold for it, and there isn’t a concession stand available for visitors. Topping out at almost 12,000 feet in elevation, Columbus Basin, in the La Plata Canyon ... [keep reading]
How Do You Help Your Child Deal with Fear?
Because we’re human, we know fear. We’ve experienced it, looming over us, daring us to a challenge. And when we become moms, we suddenly discover fears we never knew existed: “My baby isn’t crawling yet, there must be something wrong.” “Maybe I’m too strict with my children, or maybe not enough.” ...
