Can a night out bowling be sacred? by Kay Warren Both of us grew up as pastors' kids, so we’ve seen from both angles how ministry constantly demands your time. There’s always someone else who needs to hear about Christ and always someone else you need to serve. It’s easy to keep working constantly, even to the neglect of your family. That’s why we decided to start a specific family night in our home while our children were still small. We wanted our kids to know that they didn’t always have to share mom and dad with the church. |

"My son was frustrated the other day with all the rules he had to follow at school. So he asked me, 'Dad, when will I be old enough to do what I want when I want?' I said, 'I don't know, son. I don't think anybody's ever lived that long!'" - Pcom Pete "I have discovered I must think long term. I can accomplish more than I ever dreamed in 10 years, even if my short-term goals go unmet. Learning this lesson allows me to go at a sane pace, rather than frantically trying to do everything now. It also allows me to set realistic goals and deadlines while building something that lasts. A mushroom grows in six days; an oak tree grows in 60 years. Which do you want your ministry to produce?" - Brad Johnson |

"Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, 'Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.' So they went away by themselves in a boat to a solitary place." - Mark 6:31-32 (NIV) "The next thing they knew, they were in a severe storm. Waves were crashing into the boat -- and Jesus was sound asleep!" - Matthew 8:24 (Msg) |
