We’ve had a hard time getting out the door for church this morning. Kids sleeping in. Toddler meltdowns. Lack of coffee. As my wife was in the bathroom frantically getting ready, I said: “Let’s just go next week. This morning has been too chaotic.” “We’ll go wherever you lead us. Where are we headed, leader?” She said back, half joking. It didn’t hit like a joke, though. Because what she said is true. Needless to say, we’re on our way to church.

These questions take courage to ask. Few will do it. But for those who are bold enough to, they’ll likely see major growth in the marriage and leadership.

Snuck out the window to escape the kids for a date night. Thankful for this woman pushing me to be a better man everyday.

We’ve been using @vidangel for almost a year and it’s been an absolute game-changer in the way we get to watch movies and TV as a family. You don’t realize how many inappropriate things there are (even in ‘innocent’ movies) until your 5-year old is sitting next to you. Seriously think every family should be using VidAngel in their home.

Powerful moment from Jon Tyson. Listen to the whole interview where ever you consume podcasts.
The closer I get to Jesus, the more I become the kind of man my family needs me to be.
First off- I know every guy in this video and I’m so proud of the men they are, and the men they are becoming. These guys are humble, sacrificial men, who are taking their role as husband, father, and disciple very seriously. I know so many of you guys in this community are doing the same, and I’m really proud of you. Praying that God will honor your faithfulness to him and your family. The book they’re reading is called “My Daddy’s Hero”. The whole point of this children’s book is to point our children to a better father. Every dad knows, despite what their children think of them, that they are falling short. Every honest dad know he has room to grow. Every Jesus-loving dad doesn’t want his kids to be like him when they grow up; they want their kids to be like Jesus. If you’re a dad, or know a dad, that longs to point his kids toward Jesus (The real hero of the family), I would love for you to grab a copy of this book. Praying it points the eyes, ears, and hearts of your kids to the best hero of all: Jesus.
Before I had kids, I imagined that we’d have these polished Bible studies every night where my kids listened intently to my wisdom, and sat quietly, longing to hear more. Not only is bed time the least spiritual time in my home, it also seems to be the most chaotic. I’ve learned that the best discipleship doesn’t happen in the planned moments. It often happens in the spontaneous, unplanned, 15 second moments where you can point their little eyes and hearts back to the Kingdom of God. Jesus is already working in and around your children, your job is simply to point it out in as many 15 seconds moments as possible.
We watched God do incredible things in the lives of these men this weekend. Don’t believe everything you hear on the news, God is not done with men.
