To say that parenting is a great challenge is a
vast understatement. With so many competing
ideas and philosophies, it is easy to feel
overwhelmed and paralyzed. But there is HOPE.
God has given us a blueprint for parenting with
clear, timeless truths that still work today.

House or Home: Gods Blueprint for Biblical Parenting

Celebrating Mom
In spring 2013, a young man named Aba Atlas wanted to do something
special for his birthday, so he gave his mom a present and made a video
about the gift and its beloved recipient. ( Locate it on YouTube by
searching for http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QXW4l0auLg )

For years, Abas mother had worked long hours outside the home and then
cared for her kids each evening. Shed bought a house so her children
would always have a place to call home, yet the mortgage caused her
great stress. Working at a $30,000/year position, Aba saved enough money
to pay off his moms mortgage and, on his birthday, presented her with a
check. According to a caption in the video, her response was Wow x
9000.

I want to celebrate my life by celebrating the woman who gave me life,
Aba says.

BIBLE QUIZ
Right after God granted Solomon
his request for wisdom to govern,
the wise king faced a dilemma
about a baby. King Solomon in-
geniously solved a dispute be-
tween two women who both
claimed to be the childs mother
(see 1 Kings 3:16-28).

But who was the mother of
Solomon?
A. Zipporah
B. Abigail
C. Queen of Sheba
D. Bathsheba

The answer is in 2 Samuel 12:24.
The "M" word
During a science lesson, a second-grade teacher demonstrated how a
magnet can pick up metal objects such as nails and screws.

Afterward, she said, My name begins with the letter m. I pick up
things with my power. What am I?

A boy quickly answered, Youre a mother!
