There is no doubt that the days of the tyrants were terrible. But we also live in a time of fierce spiritual battle. As dads and grandfahters and the patriarchs of our families we can learn a lot from these precious women and become rock solid men who pray for our grands.

Why Does Scripture Include Christ’s Detailed Genealogies?
The genealogies of Jesus recorded by Matthew and Luke prove that He was not a self-appointed Messiah; a misguided reformer caught up in popular acclaim who began to have delusions of grandeur. Nor was He merely a good teacher of morality and ethics, or a revolutionary out to overthrow Rome’s rule. His genealogies, tracing His ancestry back through David and Abraham to Adam and ultimately to God Himself, show that Jesus was Israel’s rightful king.
Have you ever paid a heavy price for a conviction?
Do you walk the moral high ground? Or, do you just say you do? When called to pay the price, are you true to your convictions to the point of losing your job, or perhaps you life?
Simple Songs of A Child
Instructional songs are as old as humanity itself. Music has always been a powerful way to learn and remember things. Why not make up songs and use them with your grandchildren to teach God’s love and your love?
If We Know The Stories We Can Erase Time
Stories do not belong to the world and its collective consciousness until they are told; and even when stories are told they have no power unless someone is listening; and then these amazing stories are not gifted to history unless they are repeated.
What It Means To Be Made In God’s Image
Genesis 1:27 is one of the most misunderstood verses in the Bible. David helps us understand what this verse does NOT mean. How can we explain worshiping God in spirit to our grandchildren if we do not understand what it means to be made in His image?
Winter’s Grace
Remember the days of little to no air conditioning? Riding down the road with the windows down and seeing old men, typically alone, cooling off under a shade tree? I often wondered what they must think while sitting there all by themselves. It seemed like a such a sad waist of time.
Dare To Share
When is the last time you shared your faith? The Lord never commands us to win souls to Christ. But you and I are responsible to share and to plant the seed of God’s Word in people’s hearts! This includes our children and grandchildren. If you don’t want to give away the Gospel, you ought to give it up, because what you have is not real!

IT HAD BEEN A TOUGH DAY, BUT THE CRISIS WAS OVER. OFFICER SAM HANNA ONLY HAD TWO HOURS LEFT ON HIS SHIFT. WHAT COULD GO WRONG?
Our Inabilities are God’s Possibilities
When we have reached our limit, remember God is limitless. We only need to ask for strength and courage for there is nothing He cannot do. Faith is the key to access God’s infinite power.
Everyone is Under Pressure So Let’s Be Kind!
Stress and Anxiety will come. But what I do know is that I can be kind. I know how to smile instead of scowl. I know how to listen. I know how to pray. I know that we need one another. Regardless of politics or culture wars or race or religion.
