I’ve offered some of my thoughts on kids in mission but I must say that it is my beautiful wife who really is the expert here.
On Monday she presented a session at our Forge intensive entitled ‘Risk & Reward – Families Together in Mission’ where she spoke about what she has learnt about nurturing healthy family life while being engaged in missionary work.
Our good mate Darryl Gardiner gave her a shove in this direction last time he was here and I’ve been nudging her ever since. Danelle would not see herself as a ‘speaker/teacher’, but she has some great stuff to say and is a fantastic communicator. Some people aren’t cut out for the weekly bump and grind of teaching, but cut them loose 3 or 4 times a year and watch out.
If you want to be inspired in this whole area then listen in!
This is really good. Thank you for the reminder to be positive with acts of service that our children might see as arduous. I often slip in this area telling my kids to “buck up ’cause it has to be done”.
Brilliant Danelle…and about %$#& time!
Hamo you married above yourself mate….could be you have a teaching session for young single blokes.
