Parent Time

This entire month the kids are learning about the virtue: Individuality - discovering who you are meant to be so you can make a difference. The theme is "body building" - helping the kids discover their part of the "body" so that they can make a difference.

This past week we talked about the heart and how important it is to have a healthy heart. Just like it is important to have a physically healthy heart, it is also important to have a spiritually healthy heart. We tied that into the story about Epaphroditus from Philippians 2:25-30.
Epaphroditus was a messenger, a brother, a worker, and a soldier. It was about how he knew how to have a spiritually healthy heart through serving with Paul.

During one of your rhythms this week (Bedtime, Drivetime, Morningtime or Mealtime) talk with your kids about what makes people physically healthy. Then talk with your kids about what makes people spiritually healthy.

Let me know some of the ideas that you and your kids came up with.
