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.
The Fudgesicle Incident
Have you looked back on your walk with God and been amazed at His patience with you? Raising children and grandchildren is not an easy task and no one knows that better than God. The way He responds to us is the way in which He asks us to respond to others, even our own children.

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.

Our Rescuer

MY DAD, MY HELPER
