As we discussed in the Family Minute today it is so very important to publicly claim your children. To make them feel loved and a part of your family. However, there is a fine line between publicly affirming them and embarrassing them… especially your teens! Here are some tips…
I’m curious to know, what’s been your experiences when trying to publicly affirm your children without embarrassing them? Leave a comment below!
I know it may sound strange, but sometimes we just have to bite the bullet and hug the porcupine. Let me explain…
When you look at a tombstone, you’ll see the the dates of the person’s birth and death. What really matters the most however is the ‘dash’ in between…

Technology bombards our kids these days. Especially our tweens and teens. We must set boundaries and parameters on the amount of time they spend texting, playing video games or whatever the situation is. Why don’t you try something I like to call “Tech-free Times”…
It’s always a great experience being with our friends from Chick-fil-A. I just got home from their national conference in Washington D.C. In one of the main sessions Andy Stanley spoke on leadership. Here are a few quotes on leadership from Andy that I’d like to share to you:
As you can see, Andy’s overall message was for you, leaders to focus exclusively on your strengths, your core competencies, what only you can do…delegate every other thing and every other decision to someone else on your team.

In today’s Family Minute we talked about Online Infidelity. The message today was aimed only at married couples. We’d be naive to think that those who are single are not using Social Networking or online dating sites as a means to meet new people. So in my post today I wanted to address the issue of online dating. Obviously those who are married should stay far, far away from any type of dating service, but is online dating OK for singles? Let’s hear from my friends Michael and Amy Smalley…
Do you know of any online dating success stories? We’d love to hear them. Just comment below!
