4 Lessons You’re Teaching Your Kids About The Church

“Actions speak louder than words,” and “Kids will do what you do, not what you say” are two clichés we all understand, but sometimes need to take more seriously.

Many of them want to settle down, marry, and have kids.Laziness and aimlessness are frowned upon in ways they weren’t before.Pornography addiction is no longer a “Most guys do it but nobody talks about it” issue. The calls to walk away and the resources to help are abundant. There is certainly still plenty of work to do, but young men have come a long way. But that leaves the question... who is going to challenge the women? Read the rest at jackwilkie.co [http://jackwilkie.co] where you can subscribe for free or become a supporting member!

The Delayed Marriage Disaster

On this week’s stream, I examine some statistics regarding the increasingly higher ages at which Americans are getting married. Topics: * Discussing some possible reasons why the median age is climbing so high * Explaining why this matters so much more than most people think * Offering suggestions for how to help young people toward prioritizing marriage and childbearing NOTE: I’ve been doing the livestreams at 12 CT on Wednesdays, to mixed results.

Modesty Isn't Situational

As summer begins, modesty becomes a topic worthy of addressing yet again. It remains one of the most controversial, and therefore most avoided, topics of modern Christian life.
