Get them in the Lord's presence together. The only way you can fail at this is to not try. http://truewoman.com/?id=1148 2010-09-08T11:29:41-05:00 My boss loves to go home for lunch so he can spend time with his family. He talks to his wife, Carrie, several times a day over IM and the phone, and even brings his kids to work about once a week. http://hutchcraft.com/a-life-that-matters/radio-program/the-power-of-a-parents-words-8258 2009-09-14T14:48:04-05:00 Baseball season was always a special time for me and my boys. We bonded, actually, playing baseball together, and I remember when I was first teaching my oldest son how to hit a ball. It was just a plastic Wiffle bat and ball in our backyard. And I pitched gently, but he was just chopping at it and missing. He had two strikes. I went over to him, coached him a little, took a few steps back to throw the ball, and said, “Hey, I know you’re going to hit it this time, man!” He whacked that ball into the neighbor’s yard.

As we look at the story in Genesis 16:1, remember that God has promised the captain of this family, Abram, that he and his wife Sarai are going to miraculously have a son in their old age. A son from whom a nation will come, and the son who they have been waiting for a while. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Life-That-Matters/Radio-Program/The-Gift-of-a-Daddy-8049 2008-07-24T15:48:12-05:00 If you’re a father like I am, there is no greater gift you can give your son or daughter than being the daddy they need. I’ve worked with a lot of young people, and so many are living with a daddy deficit. They’re forfeiting a life that matters and making all kinds of heartbreaking mistakes.
