Waiting for the World to Change?

August 30, 2012
We made it back to church this past weekend. Although we weren’t able to get the full “big church” experience since we took Felicity to Family Chapel, it felt good to worship. I was also able to take notes during the message…which of course means that I’ll be writing “My Faith” posts once again. This past weekend, our minister continued a series called “Mission Possible – Adventures in Changing the World.” If you are interested in this series or this past weekend’s message titled “How to Save the World,” click...

With that in mind, I am going to share some of what was mentioned during the message last weekend, but if you’d like to watch or listen to the...

May 31, 2012
This past weekend, our church continued the “Modern Family” series with a lesson on what our children need most. Considering we’ll be expecting our first child in exactly two months (two months from tomorrow), this message couldn’t have come at a better time. If you’d like to watch or listen to the entire message, click HERE. I am fully aware that parenting isn’t easy…not by any stretch of the imagination. Furthermore, society has only complicated parenting by offering opposing opinions on how we should raise our children. It makes it increasingly...
