    Series: Wow! Whose Beautiful Young Daughter Is That? (Part 9) When Is A Child Better Than Seven Sons?

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020
     | 1,807 views

    The focus of parents should not be just the quantity of children they should have but the quality of children. Parents must not just have children but be ready to sacrifice for them to become vital to society. One child brought up well is better than seven sons ill brought up.

When he made love to her, the Lord enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son. 14 The women said to Naomi: “Praise be to the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,541 views

    Every parent has stories to tell – from drug and alcohol dependency, teen pregnancy, the call from the local police detachment and the runaway that hasn’t called home in five years...It’s tough being a parent regardless how old the child is.

    Perplexed: adj. 1. Filled with confusion or bewilderment; puzzled. 2. Full of complications or difficulty; involved. Parenting (in using the words parenting or parents I also refer to caregivers or guardians or anyone having the responsibility of taking care of or having cared for children) is ...read more

    Sheltered By The Most High.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Feb 3, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,053 views

    Rather than struggling against His parental protection, quiet faith snuggles in, and takes refuge in the LORD.

    SHELTERED BY THE MOST HIGH. Psalm 91:1-2; Psalm 91:9-16. Psalm 91:1-2. The opening verse of this Psalm seems to state the obvious: “those who take their shelter under the Most High are sheltered by the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1). Yet there is a reason for this turn of speech: even ...read more

    What Makes God Smile? Purpose Driven #9 Cornwall October 11, 2003 As a parent, I’ve smiled many times as I’ve watched my children. Sometimes, I’ve smiled as they’ve done something very pleasing to me, or have given me a gift that they have either picked out or created. I’ve smiled when I’ve ...read more

    A warning to our youth and a charge to our parents: the liar is speaking! Do not listen to him. Hear the Word of the Lord!

    Can you think of some faith disturbing experiences you have had since becoming a Christian? Some things that shake faith are sudden. But by far the most common faith destroyer is a long term acid that dissolves faith away a layer at a time until finally faith is so weak it becomes useless and ...read more

    Funeral message for Michael Keys, age 36, whose parents requested a message from the parable of the Prodigal Son

    In my study there hangs a reproduction of a sixteenth century map. My son gave it to me several years ago. He knows that I have always liked maps.

    Give More Than Money Series

    Contributed by Jack Allen on Jun 12, 2001
    based on 8 ratings
     | 3,680 views

    While I do not see much of this directed at the church, too many parents seem to confuse money with love.

    It seems that the church and the family in America mirror each other. We can probably agree that the church and the family should be the places where one finds love. Yet, neither seems to be a very safe place to find love today. Families break apart and church people gossip. Little sense of ...read more

     | 11,214 views

    Jesus, the one who taught us love and forgiveness, tells us that we need to hate our parents! ...

    Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said, "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple. And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be ...read more
