October is Pastor Appreciation Month. It’s a time set aside to show thanks and honor to our pastors who serve us with their time and energy. Pastor Appreciation Day is the second Sunday of October and is a great day set aside to shower your pastor with extra blessings and words of encouragement.
Grandchildren
Do you think we are in a cultural shift?
Today, our dear grandchildren are growing up in a culture where the blame game and self-centeredness are prevalent dishonestly. The times have changed since we raised our children. Our children and grandchildren desperately need our prayers.
What Influence Do You Have On Your Children?
Parents, not the kids—and not even the peer groups—are ultimately to blame for the parents’ diminishing influence in our culture. Whenever outside influences shape a child’s character more than the parents, the parents have failed in their duties. It is as simple as that.

5 Things That Hurt Relationships with Grandkids
As is common with all relationships, there can be many seen and unseen pitfalls ready to wreak havoc between grandparent and grandchild. To best reflect Christ as grandparents, our primary goal should be to avoid to allow our lives to be transformed through a rich and consistent union with Christ.
“Cereal, ‘Smerial, It’s Just Breakfast Isn’t It?!'”
Grandparents, please! Just because a child demands a certain cereal doesn’t mean it is good for them or you should buy it. If they whined for cocaine, would you give that to them too? Hopefully not! As grandparents, we must encourage children in the way they should go in all their spiritual, mental, and physical endeavors.
