On any given Sunday morning in churches across America the family is segregated into different worship services. Typically, if the children are in the "adult worship service" at all it is only for the first part where there is a lot of singing and then they are dismissed to "children's church".

So in this show I briefly discuss seven reason why the children should be with the adults during worship. If you want to raise children who love the Lord and Love to worship God you don't want to miss this episode.

In this show I talk about some helpful techniques to meditating on Scripture. Meditating on them is not a mystic nothingness as eastern religions might teach. Rather, meditating on the Scriptures is thinking it over as you focus on it in detail. This is important for us who want to leave a spiritual legacy because it enables us to better understand the Word of God for ourselves and then pass it on to generations to following. Join me today as we discuss asking questions of the text using, who, what, where, when, why, how, and wherefore questions. We also talk about 6 things to look for in meditating on the text:
Things that are repeated
Things that are emphasized
Things that are compared
Things that are contrasted
Patterns
Things that are true to life
For additional information and helpful techniques read the book, Living By the Book.
