The Family Calendar

The Family Calendar - Ephesians 5:16; Deuteronomy 11:18-21

 

Parenting Goal: Train your children so as adults they will walk with Jesus and lead others to Him

Why days are “evil”:

•        More choices
•        Technology increasing pace
•        Narcissism
•        Misuse of finances – credit, etc.
•        Relational dysfunction
Culture of “experience seeking”

Perspective Problem, so…
•        Simple things
•        Make plans
•        One step at a time
•        “Way of life” in regular activities
•        Maximize patterns

Take time to:
•        Study/read
•        Plan with your spouse
•        Together activities (does not include spectator stuff)

 

Use your time wisely:
•   Chores/responsibilities
•  Set clear expectations;          
•  teach clearly “how”;              
•  hold accountable;
•  no battles;                              
•  reward completion

Use your time wisely:

•        Chores/responsibilities
•        Do projects together
•  Reduce involvement to maximize involvement
