: Life is hard. God is good. We need each other.
Part of what The Sparrow’s Home was created for was to share resources, information, and inspiration. I thought it might be beneficial to further that conversation by sharing some things occasionally that I’ve been perusing.
I hope you check out some of these links. And I’d love it if you commented and let me know what you think of them. They range from household tips that I’m learning, to lifestyle tips, family, and spiritual growth.
What do you think this pastor said creates most of the problems that come through his door? The answer might surprise you!
For the past 9 years, every June, my family spends a week in Indiana at Midwest Family Camp, held at lovely Camp Mack on Lake Waubee. Last week was that week!
During our first worship service, I prayed that God would direct my conversations for the week. I so look forward each year to good conversation with people who make me better. I prayed that God would lead who I talked to and what we talked about, that I would hear and receive what I needed to and that I would share with others what He wanted me to.
When you obey God’s call, he can do things through you that you never thought possible. He gave my introvert husband a burden to speak publicly, no kidding!
My husband is a born introvert. He has said that his worst nightmare growing up was the possibility of having to be in front of a group talking.
You wouldn’t guess that these days, though.
Four years ago, the camp directors at an annual Midwest Family Camp that we attend asked Greg if he would consider teaching a class.
He decided to teach on Creation vs. Evolution, a topic that the men’s group at our church had been studying for some time.
Since that first class, God has really opened a door for Greg to minister through this material. He has presented in 9 states at churches, camps, conferences and at a Bible college.
