I have been meaning to promote this resource (below) for parents (and grandparents). Jim Burns is a nationally known youth and family worker who has a ministry called HomeWord. He deals with a wide variety of issues that have to do with marriage and parenting. You can sign up to get his daily e-mail devotional or listen to the program via the web at any time or by podcast. If you don’t have an Ipod, you can still subscribe to the podcast by using Itunes as the player (it’s free). His radio shows are archived as well so you can go back and see if he has covered something you are dealing with right now. I hope to have this and many other resources up and going on our webpage in the near future.
Some of the topics he has recently discussed include:
- Growing a Healthy Marriage – Even if Yours Isn’t
- Equipping Your Daughter for Sexual Purity
- Seperation & Divorce: Healing the Hurt
- Dealing with Difficult People
- Keys to Financial Freedom
- Breaking Free from the “Thin Cage”
- How to Balance Work and Family
- Defeating Disrespectful Behavior in Kids
- Why You and Your Kids Should Read the Bible
He often brings in experts to share their personal experience and make the topic more relevant. I encourage parents with kids of all ages to equip yourselves with this and other practical resources.
Because of the Cross,
Mike
