My #1 Reason For Blogging

My intent is to be a resource for parents.

Parents are stretched to the limit these days. I see this first hand in my ministry and as a soccer coach. What concerns me is that parents seem to have less and less time to interact with their sons and daughters and trust them more and more to specialists. My heart goes out to parents. I want to engage them and help them see the connections between modern thinking and the behavior of their kids.

Here is a sampling of some topics/questions that I intend to address:
Media: Should I be concerned with the messages Hollywood is sending my teen?
Postmodernism: What is it and why is it dangerous?
College: Is the Christian university the right choice for my son or daughter?
Rebellion: Where does it come from and what can be done about it?
The Bible as a Guide: What does the Bible have to say about parenting? Does it have relevant answers for today's parenting struggles?
Discipline: How can I get my teen to tell me the truth?
Influence: Who has the louder voice: parents or media? (You might be surprised)

So, I invite you to subscribe and join me in conversation regarding the wonderfully complex world of youth culture.
