- ABC News

  • Pretend you were on this flight. How would you have responded to a worried passenger sitting next to you after the captain uttered those words? Would you admit being a Christian or deny Christ? Explain.

  • It has been said, the road to ruin is paved with good intentions. There will be many times when we will have, what we think, is a great idea that ends up turning south in a hurry. Share an idea you had that just didn't work out quite as planned. What did you learn from it? How can we avoid being the cause of situations like that?

  • Last week's DinnerDialogue was about taking risks even if you don't feel prepared enough to do them. This week's DinnerDialogue is, in a way, just the opposite. So where do you draw the line?

  • Here are some Bible verses to check out. You can also use the Bible study tool on the left of this page to help you find more verses dealing with this topic. Have fun with it.

Raising Kids for True Greatness

How do you define success for your child? “Graduates from a prestigious college.” “Nabs a high-paying job.” “Settles down with a nice family.” Sounds good. But what if you got it all wrong?

What about greatness? Where does it fit in? “If you aim your children at anything less than greatness, you’ll set them up to miss the whole point of their lives,” says author Tim Kimmel. In Raising Kids for True Greatness, Kimmel turns the definition of success on its head and guides you in preparing your child for a life that will easily eclipse the goals of those who are merely successful.
