What do you do now that your have graduated? Or what do you do next when you are faced with a big decision? I recently had the opportunity to speak with the Top 10 graduates as the keynote speaker and thought I needed to share these 5 steps to help the Upper Room Family make their big decisions by taking their Next Best Step! I recommend the book, What to do Next by Jeff Henderson published by the Maxwell Leadership Group and used a lot of these points made by Jeff.

Finding the right education solution for your children is quite a decision, and for us, changed over time. Navigating the specific needs of your children, the family, work priorities, etc takes a lot of patience, discussion and grace! Listen along while we discuss our journey, current thoughts about education of our children, and how God's Word, aka the Bible, takes center stage in the education of our precious children!

Join us today as we discuss the education of children. Should Christian families use the public school system? What about charter school, private school, Private Christian School, Homeschool? Schooling, or rather Training/Discipleship responsibility has been given to parents directly from God. This responsibility should not be taken lightly as discipleship and education of the next generation is essential for the passing down of information and learning. As we wind down this school year, take a listen and evaluate your decision for the education of your children. Let us know what you think!

Dr. Dave and Julie discuss the Legacy Conference at Calvary's Love church in Johnson City NY. This was a conference focused on Legacy/Dynasty and passing on of the faithfulness of God. BY FAITH... We focused on Hebrews 11 and the great men and women of faith who gave an example to us to follow God BY FAITH. This episode is a bit longer but we really wanted to highlight all the conference sessions and the wisdom we received from it. Thanks to Justin and Amber our table hosts who I hope to have on the podcast soon to share their story with you all, as well as special thanks to the members of Calvary's Love who volunteered and served all weekend!

2 Timothy 3 is full of warnings to Timothy from Paul of the godlessness of those in the last days. Today we discuss our world and American culture in light of scripture. We transition through the full chapter to see Paul affirm Timothy is standing out with his life, his choices, and how he will face persecutions. This was a great conversation in the upper room and I hope you will find this beneficial to your steadfastness in Christ!
