Meghan Rose-The New Kid on the Block:
Children's Chapter Books with a Christian Message
Book Review by Jenny Bryans 
If you are a parent or a teacher of beginning readers, you know how hard it is to find a variety of chapter books on this level. Well, search no further, because Lori Z. Scott has published a new line of chapter books called the Meghan Rose Series. These books are not only appealing because of their reading level, but also because the author has deliberately woven God into the core of the stories. <more...>

Life. Now. 
by Shannon & Michael Primicerio
Have you ever felt stuck? We know from experience that is one of the worst feelings in the world. Yet for those of us in our twenties, it is a feeling that has become all too familiar. At a time when we should be forging ahead and accomplishing all we've ever dreamed of, many of us find ourselves simply trying to get unstuck. Or worse yet, sitting back in frustration, assuming that being stuck is our lot in life. Is it ever going to get better than this? Our minds race, yet our feet stand still, firmly planted where it is safe, and we are stuck. <more...>

The Loving Gift of Being Fully Present 
by Leonard Felder, Ph.D.
What would it be like if you and your partner became excellent listeners on a daily basis? For example, think back through the months or years you have known your partner and recall the times when the two of you talked like best friends who truly cared about each other. What did it feel like to have a soul mate who was 100 percent there for you? Wouldn't it be great to have that sense of deep connection again in your conversations? <more...>

7 Organizing Tips for Parents
By Barbara Myers
1. List responsibilities for school-age children and teens. You might include: place clothes in hamper, brush teeth, do homework, and take out trash. POST the list. We all take written cues more seriously than verbal ones. Make
it clear that all items must be completed before privileges are allowed such as T.V. viewing and talking with friends. <more...>

Journaling for Health: 5 Helpful Techniques
by Patti Testerman
1. Write about how you feel about everyday events; writing about the events is fine, but be sure to include the feelings. The goal is to get the intense emotions on paper and out of your body/mind.  <more...>

In the Garden with Jesus 
by Patrice Fagnant-MacArthur
The biblical portrayal of Jesus suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane shows Jesus in one of his most human moments. He knows the horrors that await him and he is scared beyond belief. He has just shared the Passover meal with his friends. He has instituted the sacrament of the Eucharist. He has established the  <more...>

Overscheduled Kids
by Rae Pica
Like the childhood obesity problem, the subject of “superkids” gets plenty of press these days. Time devoted the better part of an issue to it. Newsweek featured an article titled “Busy Around the Clock.” Articles with titles like “Whatever Happened to Play?” “Pushing Children Too Hard,” and “Are You Over-Scheduling Your kids?” show up in print media and on the Internet. Books with titles like Hyper-Parenting: Are Your Hurting Your Child by Trying Too Hard? are appearing on bookshelves.  <more...>

Stillborn but Welcome
by Jörg Barth
Paul Michael is the youngest of our eight children. Common usage would term him "stillborn." For us this term has always carried a stigma of being pushed aside: a life that was not really a life, an event one would rather forget. When a child dies in its mother's womb, many people do not even refer to it as a baby, using the term "fetus" instead, as if to deny that it ever lived.  <more...>

How to Write a Family Mission Statement
by Christine Louise Hohlbaum
Setting goals can give our lives meaning. In fact, without a plan our lives seem to have no direction, and we often get frustrated. Imagine taking a trip without a road map. You would most likely get lost. Knowing where you are going and how to get there almost guarantees your success. <more...>

Pick Up Your Pen and Lose Weight!
by Patti Testerman
Although every dieter knows that keeping food records is a key to permanent weight loss, few understand the importance of also keeping an “emotional journal.” In fact, one dieter lost 100 pounds, thanks in part to the insights gained through daily journaling.  <more...>

May I Walk You Home: 
A Guide to Sharing Christ's Love With the Dying 
by Melody Rossi
This journey is different from any other you will ever take. Though it will leave you changed, it is not your journey. Rather, you are walking alongside someone else who is discovering the ultimate destination. The person whose journey it is must set the course and take the lead. This is not yours to do. You are there to offer support and lighten the load when you can <more...>

Don't Forget to Dream
by Tim Dowdy with Tim Luke
There is one decision you must make that supersedes all other decisions. It will determine whether any other decision you ever make is successful. The only authentic way to decide who you are is first to decide who Jesus Christ is. Not everyone believes it, but the entire universe hinges upon His identity. <more...>

A Life-Changing Ministry Opportunity
By Mrs. Crystal Paine
The dishes are piled up in the sink. The laundry is overflowing the hamper. The one-year-old needs his diaper changed. The four-year-old needs a bandage. Someone is hollering “Mooommmmyyyy,” from the other room. It’s almost dinner time, but Mom hasn’t even thought about what to fix….  <more...>

Six Steps to Raising Financially Responsible Teens
by Mrs. Crystal Paine
In today’s money-driven society, teens are constantly bombarded by magazines, television ads, and peer pressure which make them feel less than ideal if they do not wear the latest clothing style and drive a “cool” car. Briefly visit your local mall and you will observe multitudes of young people who shop as if credit cards <more...>

Camouflaged Christians
by Nora Penia
Hunters and soldiers often use camouflage to remain unseen and hidden. They go to great effort to conceal their appearance: special clothes, face paint, painted vehicles and tools. Often their lives depend on their ability to remain invisible.  <more...>

Kids and Sports: Fundamentals First
by Rae Pica
Would you hand a child calculus problems once she was able to count to ten? A geometry text when he began to recognize shapes? War and Peace as soon as she could recite her ABCs? Of course not! Not only is it preposterous to have such expectations of a child, but also it sets up the child for failure — and, most likely, a dread of and distaste for calculus, geometry, and reading.  <more...>

How to Raise Creative Kids
by Susan Stump
“Where did he come up with that?” Kids often amaze us with their imaginative ideas and we should give ourselves a pat on the back for playing a role in this development. Creative thinking is essential for success in school and in life. It’s our job as parents to nurture our kids’ innate desire to be creative. <more...>

Helping Those Who Hurt
by H. Norman Wright
In one small European village was a town square that held a special statue. This statue was the pride and joy of the small town, but World War II arrived and soon the bombs began falling on the town. One day the statue was hit and blown to pieces. The residents collected all the shattered pieces and slowly did what they could to re-create it. When they finished the reconstruction of their beloved statue of Jesus, they noticed that the only pieces missing were the hands of Jesus. So they placed a plaque at the base of the statue with the words: Now we are the only hands that Jesus has. <more...>
