11/18/24 Advancing God’s Kingdom
God’s kingdom advances in part by how your family grows spiritually. You and your family have an important part in the way the world comprehends the Gospel. They see the work of Jesus by the way you present Him to them. Think of the impact you can have in the world around you. Think of […]

11/16/24 The Generation Gap
The Generation Gap From The Father Factor by Jim and Merry Corbett Did you know that in God’s eyes there is no such thing as a generation gap? That whole concept is nothing more than spiritually ignorant, psycho-babble hogwash. Spiritually alive parents who have chosen to invest in their children, considering them more important than […]

11/15/24 Ask for Help
Being the steward of a Christ-like family is an impossible task. Husbands and fathers, who think they can oversee that kind of family in their own strength, are fooling themselves. Without God’s help and the prayers of others, a mediocre marriage and children who don’t really serve the Lord will more than likely be the […]

11/14/24 Your Table
A family, known in their community as compassionless due to their uncaring attitude for everything other than satisfying their own needs, sat down for their evening meal. One table – adorned with a fine linen tablecloth and exquisite china – was set for the parents and their children. A second table for the grandparents was […]

11/13/24 One Day
Harry Chapin wrote a song called “Cat’s in the Cradle.” It talks of a father who’s always too busy to spend time with his son, even though the son admires him and wants to be just like him when he grows up. At the end of the song, we learn the son turned out exactly […]

11/12/24 Nothing More Important
We live in a throw-away society where products are geared toward planned obsolescence, newer is supposedly better; and why fix it when you can throw it away and get a new one. Well, that’s certainly not the way God wants us to approach our marriages and families. He asks us to do everything we can […]

11/11/24 Pursuing a Higher Standard
As a husband and father, would you do anything to change your ways if you realized the lives of your wife and children are gifts that will be presented to God one day? Who they become will be laid at the feet of our Lord. Because you hold these offices, you’re a steward of those […]

11/09/24 Just Say Yes
Make sure you respond to the call God has for your life. Make sure you don’t choose to take the easier road by living a life that’s different than God intended. If you follow hard after God, you’ll probably feel like you’re on the outside looking in within the church. I’m not talking about doing […]

11/08/24 The Bad Guys
As men, we are taught to hold on to our own safety and make sure no one takes our stuff. Some time ago, the Lord startled me while I was in one of those quiet-almost-sleepy-could-really-be-dozing kind of prayer times. His voice was quiet and full of love. He said, “I want you to know that […]

11/07/24 Easier to Do
As men, it’s easier to try to do something about all the brush fires we ignite with our spiritual ignorance than it is to become everything we’re called to be in Christ. Making something happen is far easier than waiting on God to direct our steps and completely oversee our lives, which allows us to […]

11/06/24 Action or Reaction?
Are you a man of action, or do you find yourself reacting to challenges that could have been avoided if you had engaged sooner? Preemptive prayer is an action that helps to create a smooth path for families to travel. As I look around, I see so many marriages that appear to be on the […]

11/05/24 Hold Them
As a father, one of the most wonderful gifts you’ve been given is the privilege of holding your children before God as they are finding their way. The wealth of your prayerful investment in their lives is beyond comprehension. Only eternity will tell of the magnitude of the results. There’s an unseen war raging to […]
