Do You Know What's Out There

One of our chief concerns at our church lies in reaching our own precious children with the Gospel.  It is our conviction that every Christian parent's first mission field and ministry must be to her own family.  Yet many parents feel inadequate for this God-given task. 

There is absolutely no reason to re-invent the wheel with each and every family.  We need to find the resources to help us with the task.  One such resource is found at http://ministry-to-children.com/.  The stuff on this site is designed to be used in Church children's programs, but it could be used effectively in family devotions as well.  Even better, the site includes a list of the top 100 blog sites for ministering to children.

Instead you keep working. You clean up the house again. You pack lunches for the next day. And you eventually crash into bed, knowing you’ll be doing the same thing tomorrow. For many, this is not an imagined scenario. When you parent alone – whether due to divorce, the loss of your spouse or having a spouse who works away from home for long periods of...

The Spirit and Christ

"We are not baptized in the Spirit, but into Christ by the Spirit.  We do not participate in the life of the Spirit, but in the life of Christ by the life-giving power of the Spirit.  All of the Spirit's activity has Christ as the reference point, and where the Spirit himself is given center-stage, we can be certain that it is not the Holy Spirit who is active in such settings (John 15:26).  We bear 'the fruit of the Spirit' only as we are in union with the Vine." Michael Horton, In the Face of God , Word Publishing, 1996, pg. 130.
