Family & Parenting

As the holidays approach, family can test our patience and pride. But Ephesians 4:32 reminds us to be kind and forgiving just as Christ forgave us. True strength begins when we surrender and choose grace.

Fatherhood isn’t easy — but through the Father’s love and compassion, we find the wisdom to lead, the grace to forgive, and the strength to stay steady. Learn how God’s example in Luke 15 guides every dad to love like the Father.

Living in peace with family isn’t always easy—but it’s what God calls us to do. Through forgiveness, reconciliation, rebuilding, and love, we find the peace that only Christ can give.

When the odds stacked against us looked impossible, God brushed them aside. This is our testimony of how His perfect plan opened doors no one else could.

Legacy is more than worldly success—it’s about faith that endures for generations. Leaving a Godly Legacy (Proverbs 20:7) reminds us that righteous living blesses our children and grandchildren, leaving behind a testimony that glorifies God.

Noah’s obedience and faith didn’t just save his family—it set an example of godly leadership for generations. Like Noah, we are called to build on God’s firm foundation, even when we don’t see the full blueprint of His plan.

Raising children in a godly way isn’t about perfection—it’s about showing them who to turn to, how to stand on truth, and how to walk in integrity. When our kids see us rely on the Lord in both good and hard times, they learn where their help comes from. Our faithfulness becomes a living testimony that shapes their hearts for a lifetime.

When crowds get tense and tempers flare, we’re called to respond differently. You’re equipped to be the light—even in the chaos. This devotional, inspired by Isaiah 49:6 and 2 Corinthians 4:6–7, reminds us how small acts of kindness reflect God’s glory in everyday life.

Christian parenting isn’t just about raising well-behaved kids—it’s about building a Christ-centered foundation that lasts. As our children grow and change, our role as spiritual leaders in the home becomes even more vital. From bedtime prayers to life-purpose conversations, every moment matters. In a world of shifting values, stand firm and choose daily to serve the Lord—because Christian parenting begins with you.

Living a life of faith through trials isn’t easy, but it’s in those moments we often see God move the most. My wife left a 20+ year career with no backup plan—only faith. Against all odds, God opened the exact door we prayed for. The attacks came, but so did the breakthrough. Faithful obedience led to a miracle, and now we walk forward knowing the enemy never fights what isn’t a threat. All glory to God.

I’m charged with being the spiritual leader—what Scripture calls the high priest—of my household. Spiritual leadership in the home means I can’t just preach it; I have to live it. My children are watching how I love, pray, and lead.

Raising children in this world is extremely difficult because you're constantly fighting for their attention. But a few Sundays ago, we pulled away from distractions and spent a peaceful day at the beach. My daughter ran into the cold water, my son explored with driftwood in hand, and I walked beside him. It reminded me that the presence of our Heavenly Father can still be found in the simplest moments together.
