Parenting is a team effort.  Especially when you are having a theological discussions with your 3 year old. Kari tells the first part of the story on her blog. (You have to read it before the rest of the story makes sense.) So I come in and say, Brent: We can’t see Jesus, because Jesus [...]

Today is a very important day in our country.  Make sure that your voice is heard. No matter who wins, we should all be thankful that we live in a country that goes to the polls and not to war. Pray for our country, but pray for others as well.

With all the election coverage, you probably will not catch the news that a huge storm hit Yemen and killed at least 180 people. They have a lot of rebuilding to do. Go see the pictures and pray.

Last year was incredible. This year is going to be even better. Tonight we kick off the Home Makeover weekend with a rocking worship service. It is going to be a blast. We will get to meet with God and the families we get to help this weekend. Over the weekend some 800 NorthWood members [...]
