Parenting with Grit & Grace

Costly calling: pick a church and plan to die there…

 + what does it mean to be called to a church…??

 +if we are called isn’t there a cost…??

 +gritty faith, modeled by parents is the #1 indicator for continued faith throughout the years 

How do we model church membership to our kids?

How do we overcome conflict and awkwardness in the church so that we can show our membership is authentic?

How do we overcome preferences and desires for something deeper and richer?

If a vibrant faith is the #1 attribute you care about most in the child who graduates your home, then these questions matter a whole heck of a lot!

A. For your marriage 

B. Between you and your kids (and between kids and kids) 

C. Offense & Forgiveness community

This is what we are called to as a people-a forgiveness people! Does forgiveness reign in your home? Does your family do rupture and repair well?! Does your family tend to be more “feelings-centered” or more “suck it up” centered??

Together, as a community, we can help each other find a good middle ground!
