Why do we have a Pastor Appreciation Day/Month. Because the Bible instructs us to pay double honor to those who lead us. This month we will have numerous articles to honor those God has called to Shepherd.

Articles about the dynamics of marriage and family
The Foundation of Godly Parenting
Clearly, in the plan of God, children are meant to be a blessing, not a hardship. And they usually are a blessing when they arrive. But left exposed to this world and unshaded by the proper kind of protection, they will indeed break your heart.
God is calling us to love Jesus
God is calling us to love Jesus. In His Word, He tells us about people who learned to love Jesus. Little by little, they learned to live the Jesus life – less living for self and more living for Jesus. Peter is one such person we can learn from.
SHADE FOR OUR CHILDREN
The question that faces Christian parents and grandparents today is whether we can plant some trees that will shade future generations from what may well be the blistering heat of anti-Christian values in an anti-Christian world.
THE CHURCH RAISES GOD’S CHILDREN
Not only can pastors and church leaders glean valuable information from the 3rd chapter of David Wentz’s book, but so can we parents and grandparents on the necessities of raising godly children and grandchildren.
As I Get Older
Though we are getting older we are always learning something new as we draw closer to God in our daily walk with Him.
“Church and Faithfulness”
Does the lack of faithfulness of gathering together at church bother you? Do you grieve when people who need the grace and mercy of God are absent from His house? Does it make any difference? One thing for sure, not attending makes a huge difference in the life of a believer.
Evangelizing Children
On one hand, there’s the danger of leading children to think they are saved when they are not. On the other, there’s the risk of discouraging children who express a genuine desire to follow Christ. John helps us raise our children and grandchildren in a way they will understand their zeal to follow Christ.
Happy Grandparents Day!
Grandparents Day is celebrated on the first Sunday after Labor Day in the USA. This year it is September 11th. While we enjoy our grandparents everyday, lets take this special day to celebrate and honor them. Plan ahead!
The Calling To Teach
Christians who are professional educators at all levels, parents, and those who supervise or train others can be encouraged to know that God’s presence is with you as you work. You are a co-teacher with the God of the Universe.
a letter to my grandson on his first week of school
It’s interesting how the way we mark the passage of time changes. We note birthdays with zeros at the end, and in the past we’ve measured via our children’s progress, then graduation from high school, passage through college, out into the world of work, and then marriage. But “now,” it’s our grandchildren who help us keep time.
Passing On The Legacy
As long as we are obedient in what God gives us, even when we make mistakes, His promises are sure and “will” be accomplished. That is the great hope that we are able to pass down to our children AND grandchildren.
