183 | Drifting to Dreaming (Jeff Zaugg)

176 | Balance Bike vs. Training Wheels (Terry Esau)
“I look at the Holy Spirit not as a dove, but as a sharp elbow. And, you know, and our job is to keep tender ribs so that we feel the nudge of that sharp elbow.”
168 | Dads of Influence vs. Control (Dr. Peter Larson)
You can't make them do anything they don't want to do. And now on the flip side.... actually you do have influence though. And influence is wonderful because it's like a continuum. And so your question, your challenge as a dad, as a parent, is to think about how can I maximize my influence while knowing I don't have control.
140 | Dangerous Wonder (Jeff Zaugg)
Matthew 6:21 “For your heart will always pursue what you value as your treasure”... The more we treasure the dad life the more our heart will pursue more of it. Our heart will pursue what we treasure. My prayer is that you would ENJOY the dad life. You are dadAWESOME.
