Why Church? – Real World Parents

church200-200x137Youth Specialties has a web site that is meant to help parents of teenagers called Real World Parents. As a step parent of a couple of teens and a couple of young adults, I try to read up on these things. I also look into this, so that I can pass along information to other parents, since I am also a leader in our churches youth ministry.  I think this article can be used by not only parents, youth leaders alike.

Why Church? – Real World Parents.

Maybe we aren’t and maybe we are

Yesterday, Mary and I received three letters from Huntington bank saying that our house we have been trying to sell was being foreclosed on. Once we looked closely, it said that we could ignore it if we were working with the bank and on a plan. Well, we have been. However, I need to call later today and see what’s up. So, I’m not sure where we stand other than we have our budget and are working through the bills. Pray for us.

Here’s a question…

That’s good for now.
