  • When Godly parenting fails, culture fails, family fails and nation fails!  By : Shaila D Touchton
    As parents, God holds us fully accountable to faithfully represent His authority and standards for more than just providing food, shelter, and protection.
  • Let Truth Be Told  By : Nellie Shani
    Where as the Bible does not categorize lies, many people think that lies are relative. So we have divided them into "white lies" and the real lies. What constitutes a lie? Anything that is not the truth is a lie. Apparently, there are no "white lies" Either you are speaking the truth or not speaking the truth. Why do people lie? In my humble opinion, I believe that people lie from insecurity. "If I tell you the truth, you are going to reject me." We lie because we want to be accepted, and do not want the other person's estimation of us to go down. There is a certain image of ourselves that we want to maintain and we are willing to lie to preserve it.
  • Spiritual Warfare: When Parents Have To Step In  By : Nellie Shani
    Our talk revealed that Steven (not his real name) was having problems. She told me that the boy had strange behavior and that his teacher had called her to ask her if everything was all right at home. Steven had started to become withdrawn, wanting to sit by himself at break time and was not concentrating in class.
  • Spiritual Warfare: Trauma's Effect  By : Nellie Shani
    “We think we know who did this!” Mr. Radisson (not his real name) said to me, his brows deeply furrowed. I inquired who the culprit might be and the “bony fingers of the law” pointed to a fifth grade girl called Britney (not her real name)! “We have talked with her but she has completely denied it. I want you to have a talk with her but don’t sweat over it. As soon as we can confirm this, she has to be expelled from the school! We are writing a report on this whole incident. Some parents are quite concerned.”
  • Spiritual Warfare: Friends From Outer Space  By : Nellie Shani
    When Martin eventually came to my office, he stood at the door and slowly looked at the walls in my office with a smile on his face. He walked in very slowly and deliberately. Other than that, he looked like a perfectly normal child.
  • Parenting With Christian Precepts  By : Nellie Shani
    It is interesting that in Luke 10:21 Jesus referred to His disciples as little children, hence leaving us an example of how to parent our own children. He knew that one day he was going to go back to the Father and the disciples would then have to stand on their own and carry on the message of salvation.
  • Robbed Of Childhood  By : Nellie Shani
    That our children in the 21st Century have been robbed of their childhood is a fact that does not need belaboring. With the advent of the Internet, we kissed childhood for our kids a long and tearful goodbye! I do not think that parents in the 21st Century could ever give their children too much information. With the click of the mouse our innocent children can access more information than we could ever dream of giving them.
  • Benefits Of Firm Parenting  By : Nellie Shani
    The normally noisy restaurant went quiet, the silence only broken by the child that continued to scream bloody murder! A young couple, was trying to restrain a child that looked about one and a half years old. The little girl kicked and screamed while trying to scratch her mother's eyes out! "Stop it Julie! I said stop it!" the helpless father kept saying. He looked around as if to say, "What do you expect me to do?" A waitress had picked up the bottle and put it back on their table. The couple quickly gathered their things and the young father, firmly holding on to "screaming and biting Julie," and made for the exit as his wife went to the counter to pay for their hardly touched food.
  • How Fathers Can Make A Difference In The Lives Of Their Children  By : Nellie Shani
    What is it that makes a child who grows up in a home where there was a father figure cope better with the stresses of life? Or do they? It is a proved fact that dads can and do make a difference in the lives of their children. Children who have a father that is actively involved in their lives seem to grow up more assured and self-confident than children who have not had the influence of a father.
  • The Need For Self-worth  By : Nellie Shani
    A child can feel that they belong to a family that recognizes and accepts them as a member of that family and meets all their physical needs, yet still feel that they are not really valued for who they are.
  • Self-Esteem  By : Nellie Shani
    Why should it bother anyone whether a child has poor self- esteem of not? Let me put it this way – Why should it not bother you when many young men and women with poor self- esteem often end up as drug addicts, murderers, depressed, perpetrators of domestic violence and child molesters? Isn’t it interesting that between o – 5 years is when most children are ignored?
  • When Your Teenager Seems Possessed  By : Nellie Shani
    I lived with the threat of "just wait till she becomes a teenager! You will not recognize her!" Every year I watched her, trying to notice every minute change that came over her demeanor. I was not going to be caught unawares, like my friends who were going nuts over their teenagers who were running wild in their homes! No not me! I was going to clamp her down at the first sign of madness - Yes sir! No possessed teenager in MY house!
  • Teaching Obedience To Children  By : Nellie Shani
    God has given parents and guardians the responsibility of teaching their children that in this world they will always encounter laws. Children need to learn that there will always be laws and rules to be obeyed in the normal course of living in this world (E.G driving on the right side of the road, not stealing, not fighting, washing our hands before eating E.T.C) and that there is an unpleasant consequence when laws are not obeyed.
  • The Need To Belong  By : Nellie Shani
    Every child born into this world, needs the assurance that he belongs to a family who wants and loves him or her. It is believed that during the first year of our lives the need to belong is very dominant. God has intended that parents play the role of providing this need to belong and to feel loved.
  • Why I Prefer Homeschooling My Child?  By : Shaila D Touchton

The assistant principal at his high school watched him run one day and sent home a letter—he was the Cross Country Coach who touched our son’s heart like no one else could.

    come to you."

    his way into my life.

    "Sixty" sauntered in, quite confident of his admittance I

  • Love The Sinner, Hate The Sin  By : Shari Weigerstorfer
    "...a woman who loved her daughter deeply and yet had no idea that her choice of words where crushing her child. I sat contemplating words of wisdom given to me from some wise, yet forgotten mentor: "Love the sinner, hate the sin." Applied to parenting, it translates into: "Love the child, disapprove of the action." In other words: separate the two issues..."

    CHARACTER is made up of the stable and distinctive qualities built into an individual ' s life which determine his response regardless of circumstances. American Dictionary of the English Language.

    Reflecting on the above statement for a short while will allow a person to realize, to some degree, at least, the importance of forming character. The truth is, we form our character over a period of time, for good or evil.
