Our children don’t need us to save them. Christ does that. They need us to point them to Him with humility, faithfulness, consistency, joy, and love. If we shepherd our homes with the same intentionality we bring to our pulpits—perhaps even more—we may discover that one of the most significant ministries God entrusts to us is not the one people applaud, but the one that unfolds quietly around our dinner tables. And that is a calling worth protecting.
Read MoreFatherhood is a sacred calling. God entrusts children to fathers not merely for provision and protection but for the ultimate purpose of discipleship.

It is an opportunity to partner with God in shaping their hearts to love and follow Him.
Read MoreFebruary’s devotionals are designed to help you lead your family into a deeper understanding of the love of God—not as a feeling, but as God reveals it in Scripture: covenantal, sacrificial, faithful, and transforming. Throughout the month, you’ll trace that love from the Old Testament, through its fullest expression in Jesus Christ, and into the daily life of those who follow Him. The goal is not just to talk about love, but to recognize it, trust it, and live it. The month is anchored by the memory verse, Romans 5:8: “But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” This verse reminds us that God’s love does not wait for worthiness or improvement—He loved first. Returning to it throughout the month helps keep love firmly rooted in the gospel.
