    This message encourages Dads to use their amazing power of blessing in order to help their children.

    - The idea of “blessing” seems odd to us. It’s not a concept that we use very often. - We will even say things like “God bless you” without actually thinking that it means anything except just that it’s something nice to say. - Yet it’s all through the Scripture: 467 times in the Bible, with 108 ...read more

    History: The idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of this idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Say sermon in 1909.

    As we confront evil, foolishness, and moral chaos, we need wisdom and some guidance to help us confront battle fatigue or the temptation to sin in less obvious ways because of wrongdoing.

    Wisdom’s Bypaths (Proverbs 24:13-18) 1. A not-so-bright road worker was hired to paint the line down the center of street. The first day he managed to paint 2 miles, and his boss was very pleased. The next day he only painted 2 blocks, but his boss thought that he'd probably started off too hard ...read more

    If you could sum up chapter 3 of Philippians, it would be that Paul talked about things and how they can be a blessing or they can be a hindrance.

    Philippians 3:19-whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. 20-For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, (NKJV) 19-They are headed for destruction. ...read more
