Desperate Households 3: Because Mommas Make The Difference"

(Speaker: Pastor Taylor Stewart,KPIC "Desperate Households 3:
Because Mommas Make The Difference"/  May 11, 2008) During this
Mother's Day moment, take a look into the sacred trust parents
have in discipling their very own children. We don't want to "win the
world" at the expense of our own families. Listen in as Pastor Taylor
Stewart lays out how spiritual legacies in families are truly formed
after the example of Timothy's mother and grandmother found in 2
Tim. 1:3-7. Even where there have not been proper role models in life,
God knows how to raise up "spiritual" mothers and fathers to flank us
on every side. On the flip side, we who have been built into, also have
a responsibility to honor those God has put into our lives. Even in
challenging situations, we are exhorted through Scripture to "Examine
everything, and hold to the GOOD". Tune in and listen how God is
building and blessing the family!

mystery why many times God told His people to "be strong and

have in ourselves. Whether you're taking on challenges that seem
impossible, or are trying to lead people through a situation that

of Reconcilation"/February 23, 2008) As believers, we must avoid
the temptation to be consumed  and pressured by the cares of
