Our kids . . .

Our kids need us to make a radical commitment to live radical lives because we serve a radical God who loves us with a radical love.
Our kids need us to live with the conviction that what we say we believe we actually believe, that who we say we are is who we actually are, and that our love for God and our love for others supersedes all other loves.
Our kids need us to see a real, authentic, uncompromising and fully committed faith. For it is in seeing this faith that they will see it’s power, and in seeing it’s power they will claim it for their own. And it’s in claiming a powerful faith in Jesus… that our kids will have what they really need.
