Fervent Prayer

I have prayed for a lot of things, circumstances, and people over the years, as I’m sure you have, too. Some of my prayers have been short and intense, like the time an oncoming car swerved into our path one winter coming back from Rockland…

After the Woodshed

For those of you men who are older I’m sure you remember what it was like when your father said, “meet me in the woodshed.” You knew immediately that it was not to stack wood because you had just disobeyed your dad in some way and the “board of education” was about to be applied to “the seat of knowledge”.

Finish Well Through Praise

The Word of God calls this confusion, and there is a solution.

Two Extremes – Part 2

There is no such thing as a perfect parent. That being the case, a goal to shoot for, men, is to avoid the extremes of parenting styles. Scripture gives us clear information on these two extremes in Ephesians 6:4 and the book of Proverbs.

Two Extremes Part 1

Every area of life has its extremes. Religion has its liberals and conservatives, politics, as well. In sports you find the fair-weather follower and the fanatic. Parenting is no different. In between the harsh parenting style and the permissive style, you will find the balance, a noble if not somewhat elusive goal.
