Below is a guest post from Rebecca Lindenbach. She’s an exceptional young lady and the kind of person I hope my kids grow up to be like someday, so I’m taking her brilliant advice to heart! So many parents surrender to the naive and false assumption that teenage rebellion is a foregone conclusion, but there is a better way! If you are a parent (or ever plan to be), THIS could change your whole perspective and reshape the way you teach... Read more

“It is more blessed to give than to receive.” –Jesus (Acts 20:35) My wife Ashley and I, along with our twelve-year-old son, Cooper, and a team of a dozen others from our church, just returned from a life-changing trip to serve the children at Casa Shalom Orphanage in Guatemala. The orphanage provides food, shelter, education and LOVE to around one hundred kids who have nowhere else to go. These kids stories are heartbreaking, but their resilience is inspiring. These kids are also the most... Read more
