The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
– Reverend Theodore M. Hesburgh
Tell Your Kids About This Man
Steffan Tubbs is a morning radio host on Denver’s leading talk station, KOA-AM. I enjoy listening to him along with his co-host, April Zesbaugh. They’re good at what they do.
Steffan has a tremendous appreciation for veterans, especially those who served in World War II. In fact, he’s the spokesman for The Greatest Generation Foundation, an organization dedicated to celebrating military personnel from that era. Steffan has accompanied many aging soldiers to former battlefields, including Pearl Harbor and Iwo Jima.
Do Happily Married People Make Better Employees?
This past Friday’s Wall Street Journal highlighted a new hiring practice for the NFL’s Jacksonville Jaguars. When evaluating the fit of a free agent, team officials don’t just spend time with the player.They also invite and interview the particular player’s wife, assuming he’s married. As explained in the Journal:
Shahid Khan, the Jaguars’ new owner, who made his fortune in auto-parts manufacturing, said he had the idea because he tries to meet all of the spouses of his employees.
The Greying of Divorce
Exceptions to the norm naturally surprise us, like when we hear about a marriage of 40-plus years ending in divorce.
Do you know somebody who for no good reason has decided to walk away from their marriage of longstanding?
According to the research, approximately 4% of marriages that make it to 40 years will eventually end in divorce.
What would cause somebody to give up on their spouse after so many years together?
I think a lot of it is caused by the modern nature of marriage.
How to End Abortion Overnight
My friend Chuck Colson, who is making progress following surgery but still in ICU, published a provocative guest column a few weeks ago on his Breakpoint website. It was penned by a gentleman named Rolley Haggard. The writer made a bold pronouncement.
Here is a condensed version of what he wrote:
If every Sunday, in every pulpit, in every evangelical church across America, ministers would devote one minute—ONE MINUTE—to decrying the evil of abortion on demand, such universal solidarity within the ranks of Christian leadership would accomplish two things, maybe three.
The Church Bulletin Said What?
When an editor would have come in handy:
The Fasting & Prayer Conference includes meals.
The sermon this morning: Jesus Walks on the Water.
The sermon tonight: Searching for Jesus.
Ladies, don’t forget the rummage sale. It’s a chance to get rid of those things not worth keeping around the house. Bring your husbands.
Remember in prayer the many who are sick of our community. Smile at someone who is hard to love. Say ‘Hell’ to someone who doesn’t care much about you.
Why the Term “Working Mother” is Redundant
According to political consultant Hilary Rosen, Ann Romney, “has actually never worked a day in her life.”
This morning, Mrs Romney responded:
“She should have come to my house when those five boys were causing so much trouble. It wasn’t so easy.”
At the center of this issue is an ongoing point of tension for many families in America:
Are stay-at-home moms working mothers?
If you ask me, the simple answer to that question is a resounding “Yes!”
To try and draw a distinction between mothers who work outside the home and those who work full-time within it only diminishes the value of all mothers in general.
Who’s Your Caddy in Life?
Sports fans are now familiar with the name Bubba Watson, the winner of this past weekend’s Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, Georgia.
But how about the name Ted Scott?
I wasn’t familiar with him either, until I discovered that he’s not only Bubba’s caddy, but he’s also the guy credited with helping to tame Watson’s temper – which probably also saved his career.
In professional golf, the caddy usually does more than just carry a bag.
Three Things Bubba Watson and Tim Tebow Have in Common
Rarely do Easter and the world of sports mix so smoothly, but yesterday they did.
In Augusta, Georgia, thirty-three-year-old Bubba Watson won the Masters golf championship, coming from behind and claiming the green jacket on the 2nd hole of a sudden-death playoff round.
Bubba Watson is a Christian and a very exuberant one at that. In describing himself on Twitter, he notes that he’s a “Christian, Husband, Daddy” – in that order. He leads a Bible study during the PGA tour and regularly tweets verses of Scripture.
Have You Ever Caught a Glimpse of Heaven?
Do you believe that God sometimes allows heaven and earth to touch?
I certainly do, and not only because I have seen it with my own eyes. I want to tell you about something pretty incredible that once happened to me.
Easter seems to be an ideal time to ponder heaven and the glory of the life that never ends. After all, it was on Easter when God pulled back the veil and allowed man to see the grandest of all miracles firsthand.
