Child Evangelism

[…]God loves you. Recite John 3:16 with your child’s name in place of “the world.” 2. Show the child his or her need of a Savior. Deal with sin carefully. There is one thing that cannot enter heaven–sin. Be sure your child knows what sin is. Ask him to name some (things common to children–lying, sassing, disobeying, etc.). Sin is doing or thinking anything wrong according to God’s Word. It is breaking God’s law. Ask the question “Have you sinned?” If the answer is no, do not continue. Urge him to come and talk to you again when he does […]

Service Separations

[…]cassette tape recorder for each of you. This is especially invaluable if you have young children. Most children hate to write letters, and of course very small ones can’t anyhow, but it’s amazing how much they can find to share with Daddy on a tape! And hearing Daddy’s voice talking to them is an even bigger thrill. Our family has found tape letters invaluable in keeping communication channels open during separation. When our youngest son, Kyle, was five months old, Jerry went on a cruise, and in due course we received a tape from him. Kyle was lying on the […]

[…]because they, in turn, have the burden of passing these “truths” on to their children. For example, every child must be warned that if you cross your eyes, they will sooner or later stick just like that and stay crossed for the rest of your life. Children need to learn at an early age that clean underwear is a must, in case they are in an automobile accident and have to go to the hospital. Surely they understand that there’s an official in the emergency room who divides patients into “clean underwear” and “dirty underwear” categories. Only the former receives […]

What Are Parents to Do?

[…]child go off in to hostile territory. Who would protect him? She had nurtured and protected this child, hugged him when sad, encouraged him to discover new activities and interests, and watched with amazement as he enjoyed exploring new things.

We daily claimed the promises of Psalm 91, parts of which we have posted in two locations in our home. We drew comfort […]

Professional Perspectives for Senior Officers

[…]arrows are weapons of war that must be given particular care. We have a special responsibility to care for and train our children. 3 JOHN 4. “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth! ” John is speaking of spiritual children, but God’s Word continually uses family examples that should also be happening spiritually. Children who walk in the truth should bring us greater joy than a promotion, a success, or a mission accomplished. 1 TIMOTHY 3:4,5.

Time, Talent, Treasure: OCF small group fellowships

[…]And when emergencies arise, the small group members often rally together to provide meals, take care of children, and provide comfort and encouragement through prayer, Scripture and time spent together. Every Wednesday, Naval Base Kitsap OCFers gather at the aptly named Anchor of Hope church, filling long tables with delicious smelling casseroles, crockpots and salads. The kids eat quickly so they can get back to playing and chasing each other. The adults enjoy the meal while chatting, laughing, and catching up on one another’s lives, relishing the chance to finally rest from work or taking care of kids all day. […]

Implicit Trust

[…]the sinner who believes and trusts in the Lord Jesus the assurance that he or she has become a child of God, has passed from darkness into His marvelous light, from death to life everlasting. Romans 10:9 (KJV) presents the Gospel succinctly: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Years ago, returning by train from Baltimore to my duty station in Philadelphia, the spirit of God led me to jot down some thoughts He gave me honoring His […]
