Our local body probably does not (yet) fully appreciate the calling and the burden our Lord Christ has placed on you . . . may He raise up devoted pray-ers for you and your family, and may He strengthen you for this rich and deep vision for ministry to the saints and those who can be drawn to Him by the love of His disciples one to another.

I am working with youth in Atenas, Costa Rica and I will be doing something similar (I also served in Houston, Tx.). Just wondering, what is the "PD model of small groups"?

]]> Comment on Obama needs to thnk before speaking about education by Me http://claytoncoates.wordpress.com/2009/03/10/obama-needs-to-thnk-before-speaking-about-education/#comment-147 Me Wed, 11 Mar 2009 20:49:20 +0000 http://claytoncoates.wordpress.com/2009/03/10/obama-needs-to-thnk-before-speaking-about-education/#comment-147 If you want more time with your kids home school. Studies have show that it is time away from school that widens the education gap between rich and poor (see Outliers by Malcome Gladwell). Year round school is the best solution for the problem but longer school day might help as well - as long as the homework load is lessened (unfortunately I doubt it will happen though, which will just leave kids working even later into the evening, and more sleep deprived the next day). I also think school should start later (too many sleep deprived students who can't learn effectively) - so ending later makes sense. Maybe they could make the longer school day optional for parents who work later. If you want more time with your kids home school.

I feel so convicted about how I say things at times and then forget them....i.e.-don't live them. Conferences are good for some to hone their skills, learn new models. For me, they allow me to walk in the tension of what "I" desire and God's calling. I think I will continue to go for this very reason....thanks for being so honest in your comment Mandy- love your family as well....
