When situations look impossible, remember that God has mighty resources at His disposal that are small in the world’s eyes. In Israel’s case, it was the “hornet.”
Millions of marriages are smoldering. The passion is gone. The fire is almost out. The excitement and astonishment left years ago. Marriages go through stages as Jesus said: “hot, cold, and lukewarm.” I’ve been married for over 40 years and I’m sure I have been through all three of them! If your marriage needs some “hot sauce,” I can help you with that.
Most leaders are struggling to “fit it all in”. From home, to work, to kids, to spouse, to church, to parents we are all trying to not leave anyone out. We feel stretched and stressed. Successful relationships happen on purpose. Here is how to prioritize the relationships in your life and make sure you are hitting the bullseye.
I have noticed that children and parents seem to be drifting apart. Weeks go by with little conversation or interaction. My father-in-law, Jim Clark, taught me the greatest secret to raising kids: the “family night.”
Melanie and I have six children, all married, with 16 grandchildren and 2 on the way.
People often ask, “Why should I bring my child to church?” Or, “What are the values a child should learn from a life in church?”
I love blessings. God loves to give them.
The only caveat? You need to love Him, honor Him, and serve Him.
Melanie and I have six children, all married, with 13 grandchildren (and one on the way).
I look back over the 32 years we had children at home and can see 12 main rules we followed.

We all want our children to turn out well. Nothing thrills us more than seeing them go through school, marry well, excel in their career, and fulfill God’s purpose on their lives. Raising children who love, respect, serve, marry well, and contribute to society is not easy.
As I go into restaurants and malls, I see parents struggling to maintain control of children. They beg, bribe, and get angry. The “little one” seems to come out victorious. Sympathetic onlookers are tortured as they put themselves in the identical position. What are the secrets that make it seem EASY?
Most of us have dealt with a “prodigal” (rebellious, independent, foolhardy) child. It’s true that some parents have never had a child drift away from their faith. I have, and I can help you with that.
A lot of people don’t believe in vacations. They feel like they’re wasting time. They hate to spend the money. They like their own refrigerator! With six children, we figured out a way.

I have six children: five sons and a daughter. I have seven grandchildren with more on the way. I’ve been raising children for 37 years. I can help you do that if you need help. It all starts with a father. Mine just died at 97. His life, ministry, and legacy is legendary. Many of you did not have a “Bro. Roy.”
Steph Curry is the rage of the NBA. He’s the greatest three-point shooter of all time. He, his wife Ayesha, and their little girl Riley have become a model family for America. What a lot of people don’t know, however, is that his parents led their family in a half-hour Bible devotion every morning before school. I’m concerned about the families I see. We raised our six children with the Word of God at the center. That’s probably why all six of them are involved in the ministry.
I’ve been really concerned about the lack of honor in our nation.
I have learned that honor is a part of God’s character: “Those who honor Me I will honor and those who despise Me will be lightly esteemed” (1 Sam. 2: 30).

This is a true Olympic archery bullseye.
