My wife and I were both mentored by her cousin and his wife. And this ministry has went on now for over 30 years, and it's just been a wonderful thing to have someone to minister to you in that way.

I don't know where we got it, but someone gave my wife and me a picture that says, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble," and my wife doesn't like, she wants to get rid of it because it's ugly. But I like the verse, so it's still in our house.

It does hit on holidays, how you interact with extended family, even just food and grocery shopping. We've had to learn to figure out what are the best pieces that we need to really hang on to, and what are the pieces that it really doesn't matter and we can do without.

I promised "in sickness and in health, til death do us part", and I'm a man of my word. It's not that I have to, it's that I get to.

As I'm raising my daughter, one of my favorite verses that I always cling to is Proverbs 22:6. "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it."

My daughter is about to turn two and we have a routine at night. We'll put her to bed and my wife and I will pray with her. We all join hands, kind of like a huddle. If we ever forget, she reminds us. She says, "Pray?" It's one of the words that she has learned.

BL: Let's listen as this woman explains something her daughter learned recently at school.    Clip: Some children at recess had signaled with the third middle finger. She was asking me what that meant, and why was it mean or not nice.
December 8, 2021
BL: We talked with this woman about a difficult situation that caused her to rely on God.    Clip: He has seen me through cancer. You know, my hope is in the Lord. I truly cling to that, knowing that every day that I live is a gift from God.
