Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
family life | parenting teenagers | prayer time
Recently, I struggled with spiritual dryness. We all know this is part of faith formation, growth, and maturity—to weather when it is not easy to pray. Trusting in God when He feels distant, or more accurately, when we feel estranged for whatever reason (fatigue, frustration, anger, hurt), is part of the journey we see over and over again in Scripture. We are not called to be successful, but to be faithful, and anything else is a Gospel of good feelings and prosperity.

Living the Faith | family prayer | parenting teenagers
You've got teens. They're all over the place. They're struggling with lots of things you never even considered and drifting into the stream of the world via the internet, popular culture and media. How do you help them wrestle with God? You love them. You love them, you love them, you love them, and you create opportunities for them to know it.
