Family Worship with Handel in May
We usually begin our family worship with hymn singing from hymnals (the ole fashioned way, no guitar, just Shua playing the piano). And I’ll usually pick hymns that we rarely sing, just so that we can learn some new ones. The kids though have their favorites and last night, each were calling out their own. [...]
What I’m Doing for Family Worship

Sandy and Paul Coughlin in Focus on the Family Magazine in an article entitled, “Reviving Hospitality,” write: During the mid to late [...]
Preventing Sibling Distance
In families where there are multiple children, usually more than 2, there is always the potential of sibling distance. Perhaps that has happened to some of you. You have one brother you’re closer to than another sister. You have a sister you’re closer to than another brother. In the past, I used to chalk that [...]
