I know I’m not big on change. It’s obvious and I realize it’s something I’ve struggled with since the dawn of my own personal “time.” As we get closer and closer (and closer and closer) to pending parenthood — Amy may pop in about a month, actually — preparations are […]

Sanctus Real Gives Advice on Parenting
John DiBiase: Any advice for new fathers? Pete Provost: You gotta tell me! I can’t answer that one yet. Dan Gartley: Me neither. Matt Hammitt: Hold on! Two words. Nah, I’m just kidding. Goodness gracious! It’s so weird how self-taught parenthood is. It’s so crazy. Even with our first and second, it’s […]
“Think Like Jesus” by J.M. Farro
Before I began devoting myself to regularly studying the Scriptures, I believed that I had to accept every thought that popped into my head. I didn’t realize that I could reject wrong thoughts, and refuse to let them take root in my mind and heart. One of the Scriptures that […]
“Let There Be Wheat!” by Michael Weaver
Well, this is my first post here. I will start by saying that being a parent is a tough thing. It’s rewarding, but there’s a new challenge every day. My daughter, Avery, is 3 years old; a few weeks ago, it seemed she had gotten sick and no matter how […]
“The Kingdom of Heaven” by Kinsey Gensel
I marvel at my three year old daughter! I don’t know from where she gets some of her amazing qualities. She’s so unlike me in so many ways and I wish to be more like her in many ways. We’re often seen at our neighborhood park at least several times […]
“A Living and Mighty God” by J.M. Farro
Every day, I like to remind the devil and his cohorts that my God is alive and well. I like to remind myself of it, too. Apparently, David and Job felt the same way. David declared: “The Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be God my Savior!” (Psalm […]
“LJF Cribs” by John DiBiase
Today, my wife and I went crib shopping for the little guy with my parents who were eager to help us with the process. We ventured to a local Babies R US first to get a look at our bedding options for the latest DiBiase addition (yes, Indy our guinea […]
“Rewards for the Good We Do” by J.M. Farro
“Remember that the Lord will reward each one of us for the good we do.” Ephesians 6:8 NLT My son, John, didn’t get his first job until much later than most kids his age. We allowed him to stay home during his summer vacations from school, because when he was […]
“The Problem with Pampering” by J.M. Farro
“Discipline your children while there is still hope. If you don’t you will ruin their lives.” Proverbs 19:18 NLT My husband and I were at a neighbor’s house one day, when the father and husband of the household confessed in exasperation, “The better I treat my kids, the worse they […]
“Is Patience Still Waiting?” by John DiBiase
It’s funny to think that a year ago, I never would’ve guessed I’d be where I am today. Amy and I just had another ultrasound on Tuesday. The little guy is doing really well (thank God)! He was covering his little face, so we couldn’t see the 3D ultrasound, but […]
