current and future.

I don't like it when people say that our KIDS/YOUTH are the FUTURE LEADERS of the church. I believe that they are both CURRENT and FUTURE leaders. They know, appreciate, and are trusted on their MISSION FIELDS way more than us OLD FOLKS.

What are we doing to raise them up? I feel like a failure many times...how about you?

I am trying to get into a rhythm of starting to do family devotions/spiritual time together at least twice a week. That is my goal. Do we reach it? Hardly, but that is why we press toward the goal. My #1 priority on earth is my family. What am I doing to train them up in the truth?

I love what MARK BATTERSON has been saying about his discipleship time with his son. It has inspired me to do the same when Christian gets to that age and I pray it inspires my wife to do the same with our two little divas.

Read his post HERE. It is amazing. (Mark will be a featured speaker at our the STICKS conference this FALL @ New Hope on November 11-12th)

blessings and peace.
