One of the draw backs of growing up is that one by one our heroes are torn down as their all too human frailties are exposed. Do you ever long for just one authority who won’t tarnish with age, one leader whose example can stand the fires of time?
With all the talk about sex education it is time for us to take a careful look at one of the oldest curriculums on this subject in existence.
Hollywood portrays it as the ultimate thrill ride of life that can satisfy the deepest longings and desires, but the church often condemns it as sinful. Sex –it is often taught in the classroom but avoided in home and church.
It’s a job that is never done. It’s a task that few appreciate. The truth is that millions across this world daily fulfill this role and often with little recognition or praise.
Millions are spent to gain the vital information needed to get in shape physically, but sadly in the end even the most sculptured body disintegrates into dust. There is a more important part of our being that needs to be strengthened.
Who should we trust? Who should our kids trust? And why? Let’s find out why trust is so fundamental to the wise individual.

There is a foolish way to live and a wise way to live and deep inside we all know there is a difference, yet all have to face the consequences of the choices they make in life.
Evil has sought to entice the young with his criminal con for centuries and the Old Testament book of Proverbs has just the right information to help our children resist. But we need to know what it says and how to relate it to today’s needs.
We need to get in there and give our kids solid persuasive reasons why they should never touch illicit drugs and we must also give them the right stuff to help them resist the temptation. The information we share on the next two Truth Encounters could save your children’s lives.
God whispers to us in his creation and deep inside we remember that we were made to reflect his character. He built us to praise his name.
If everything is fundamentally unreasonable, why slug it out through college to train your mind in reason? Why not express the basic instincts? Contrary to much modern thought, there is definitely a life architect behind it all.
Banging away at computer keys, rushing out to get the latest iPhone or digital gadget, do you ever wonder if the God of the Bible can keep up with all man’s technology?
Why do so many of us try to construct life and try to build our families without consulting the life Architect?
“Train up a child in the way which he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it,” You tried so hard to raise godly children but their choices have moved them far from spiritual truth. Did God’s promise fail?
Where can we find a Dr. Spock that can give us the right information for raising kids in the 21st Century?
