Household Prayer: Advent Joy

Hey brothers, hope thanksgiving was a joy. I love the advent season and the teaching and discipleship opportunities it brings. Praying for sweet times reflecting on Immanuel, God with us, this month for every household in our community. Pray for continued good health and healing through the covid/flu season.

John Newton: Exhibit “A” For Why We Should Catechize Our Children “Catechesis was one factor in helping John Newton (1725–1807) finish well… Newton was converted amid a providentially ordained storm at sea. But the foundation for his encounter with grace was laid those first seven years at home… Parents, catechize your children, and watch God work. It may please him to open their blind eyes now, or perhaps later. Indeed, memorized truth could eventually become a light in a dark place, as it was for the great blasphemer who became a Jesus lover.” https://founders.org/2017/08/17/john-newton-exhibit-a-for-why-we-should-catechize-our-children/

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me;
I once was lost, but now I’m found,
Was blind, but now I see.
