Warning: This Question Will Change Your Priorities

May 9, 2014 by michael 11 Comments

I just finished reading Michelle Anthony's book Spiritual Parenting.  At its core, Spiritual Parenting is not a book on "how-to parenting."  It is a book about how to view your role as a spiritually minded parent.  Essentially, it asks the question, “What is my end goal in raising the children God has entrusted to me, and then how will I parent them with that end in mind?" Her book … [Read more...]

What To Do When God Is Silent

April 11, 2014 by michael 10 Comments

There have been seasons of my life where it seems as though God had packed up, moved far away, and left me no forwarding address. I’m unable to sense his promptings and overall presence as I search for answers to my special needs questions: Father, why?  Why does my son have autism? Okay, God, I'm sure you've got a plan. What am I supposed to do? I am emotionally spent Lord and physically … [Read more...]

The pressure of day-to-day parenting can … [Read more...]

Love Is A Gift

February 14, 2014 by michael Leave a Comment

It’s February. The month when we officially celebrate “romantic love.”  It seems like I had barely removed the ornaments from our Christmas tree when heart-shaped coffee mugs, paper heart doilies, and I-love-you teddy bears started appearing on department store shelves everywhere! Valentine’s Day: Russell Stover chocolate boxes, red roses, and romantic sentiments. Don’t get the wrong … [Read more...]

The Not-So Perfect Parent

January 10, 2014 by michael Leave a Comment

The Perfect Story: There was a perfect man who met a perfect woman. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Then they had perfect children and were the perfect parents.  Their life together was, of course, perfect. The End. Perfect.  That’s how I always pictured how my life story was going to go.  Wrong! It’s going more like this: There was an imperfect man who met an … [Read more...]
