Your Question:

How do I keep my family from losing everything?

Answer:

As a husband and father of two young children, I understand the challenges of keeping our family tight and together. With busy schedules, homework, and social needs competing for our attention, it's easy to feel like we're losing our footing. But I believe that with determination and a clear plan, we can stay connected and build a strong foundation for our family.

One of the most important things we can do is prioritize our family's spiritual growth. As a pastor, I've seen firsthand the impact that a strong faith can have on a family. By setting a clear mission statement and working together to live out our values, we can create a sense of purpose and direction that will help us navigate even the toughest challenges. This might involve setting aside dedicated time for prayer and Bible study, or finding ways to serve others together as a family.

As my wife Susan and I have navigated the ups and downs of parenting over the past 19 years, we've learned the importance of being intentional about our time together. Whether it's a family game night, a volunteer project, or simply a quiet evening at home, we make a conscious effort to prioritize quality time with our kids. And as they grow older, we're learning to adapt and find new ways to stay connected, even as they begin to assert their independence. By being proactive and creative in our approach to family life, we can build a strong, resilient family that will thrive for years to come.
