WHAT we’re teaching +
What’s your dream job? Do you want to be a pilot or astronaut? A teacher or musician? There are so many incredible jobs for us to pick from! God has given each of us special talents and skills that can help us discover what we want to do. But God gives us another job, too. It’s the chance for us to follow God right now! In this four-week series from the Gospels, we’ll read about Jesus starting out his ministry and how he invited his followers — and us — to listen to God’s voice, trust Jesus knows us, trust God’s plans for us, and include people who aren’t like us.

PARENT TIP OF THE MONTH +
Raising kids means you will, at some point, deal with behavioral issues. You’ll have moments where they can’t pay attention or disobey But as much as it makes you want to pull out your hair, please keep this in mind: there are no "bad" kids. Some kids need a little extra love and attention to learn to have self-control.
+ Here’s a resource for you
How can we tell the difference between a behavioral issue and something deeper going on in the life of our children? In her podcast – Parenting For The Culture – educator, and mother of 6, Charisse Sims explores how to parent in a way that leads to flourishing. In this episode, Charisse asks the question, "Is My Child Good?"
