I read this at Elizabeth Elliot's site on her devotionals. Oh, and it is my heart's prayer for my kids... for all our kids! This is truly the prayer of a Timothy Mom, and as I face this coming year it is all the more my prayer. Many changes seem to be on the horizon, some I'm fearful of, some I'm excited about... all out of my control. I must look to the One who is in control and trust Him

Last year I read about doing advent with a Jesse Tree. I'd never heard about it before and when I read this I was sold! Of course, by the time I read it last year it was like December 14th or something, so we only got to do about half of the days. This year, we got to start from the top.When I read to the boys from the info I had printed up for this advent I was touched by this:"During Advent we

Reading Philippians 2:14-16 this morning, praying it for my sons, I get to verse 16:"...holding fast the word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christthat I have not run in vain or labored in vain."I think of the calling on my life, and on all our lives as moms (and really as women, whether we have our own children or not), to "labor in birth again until Christ if formed in our little

Angie, over at Bring The Rain has posted this button along with the following scriptures that she prays over her kids! I thought it was just awesome!I pray over my kids, I pray out loud, I pray with them, I pray silently... I walk around talking to God all day, but often I feel like I don't know what to pray!

I purchased this video recently. It's excellent. Of all the Torchlight series videos, this one is my boys' favorite!We need to give our kids true heroes to look up to. Now as much as, and maybe more than ever, it's time for us to teach our kids about the cost and the amazing life in following Christ.For Torchlight videos go here.

You know the verse:Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is oldhe will not depart from it. - Proverbs 22:6Did you know that the word way in that passage means to tread (bend) a bow ? It's interesting to me that this passage uses the word for to bend a bow (the object which launches arrows) when speaking of the training of our children in light of what Psalm 127:4-5 says:Like

I've had Timothy Moms on my mind today. Last year at Christmas time this vision for teaching my boys God's word and not hiding behind fears or excuses or chasing the pursuit of my own version of God's vision was birthed in me. Since that time I've really had to decrease the amount of time I've given to blogging. I still post some of my personal meditations over at my other blog, but Timothy Moms

A month or so ago I ordered The Good and Evil book by Michael Pearl. I was looking for a Bible story book I could read to my boys that wasn't just a bunch of nice moral tales with sterilized images of the characters thrown in. For the most part, that has been what I've found. I don't want my kids to think of the stories in the Bible as Veggie Tales or Boz the Bear (not that I have anything

Reading The Story about Ping to my kids last week it hit me, "I'm doing what Jesus did...telling parables to explain God's word and ways to my kids."It was an ah-ha moment. I've been doing the Five in A Row studies with my boys. It's only our second week, we're on Storm in the Night, but it's been great!!

This is a re-post of what I originally wrote in December of 2007 when my heart was turned to purposefully teach my sons God's word. With the hiatus from the Timothy Moms blog has come a time of reflection, planning and focus (without writing about it here) to teaching my sons God's word. I look forward to returning to regular postings here soon, but in the mean time I just thought someone else

Today's a sick day in our house. My 3 year old went to bed with diarrhea and woke up 3 times in the night vomiting. This morning I found myself on the floor in the living room on a pallate of blankets with my little sick one surrounded by the smell of vomit. The couch cannot be sat on, since all the cushions are being washed of the barfies. And there's a pile of upholstery and linens along with

This week's challenge comes from the section of the Deuteronomy 6:6-7 which talks about us as parents diligently teaching our kids things from God's word that are in our hearts WHEN THEY LIE DOWN! We've been challenged to sing a song of worship or speak a verse we've memorized to our kids first thing in the morning when they wake up. We've also been challenged to deliberately sit down with our

Discipline and teaching our kids to believe our words and obey them is a theme I'm learning to hear God's way and learning to implement God's way.This scripture comes to mind:If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.

This week's challenge comes from, "...and when you walk by the way..." part of the Deut.6 passage.The challenge is:*To go do something, preferrebly out of your house, even if it's just to your front/back porch, or front/back yard, but if you can, actually go for a walk or a drive somewhere. *The goal for this challenge is to do something that will help foster a "field trip" of sorts for one of

My answer to the TFTM's question today is in the question itself. The word of God that has really grabbed me as though the LORD were COMMANDING it to me lately has been Deuteronomy 6:6-7! Two things "command" me in these verses, at least right now:1. I need to be doing personal Bible study and listening for the words the Spirit would command me that day or in that season.2. I can't teach God's

Since this week began the Deuteronomy 6:6-7 Challenge (go here to participate and post your Challenge post link) I've been thinking and praying a lot about what it looks like to apply Deuteronomy 6:6-7 to my own life. So the question to answer in your blog post this week is:What of God's word has really spoken to you lately? Is there a verse or section of scripture that you heard or read recently

This is the first week of the Deuteronomy 6:6-7 challenge. I decided to start this challenge mostly just to hold myself accountable and to purposefully plan to speak God's word to my children throughout our day.I already have the desire to plant God's word in their hearts, but the challenge is to do as Deuteronomy 6:6-7 says and teach them when we wake up and walk along the road and sit in our

It's true, if you put yourself "out there" to obey something God leads you in, such as writing up this challenge, you'll be tested in it yourself!This past two weeks, ever since writing up information about this meme, I've been tested daily with the doubts, thoughts, frustrations and excuses I think we all experience when we step out to obey God in anything His word says.I had begun Timothy Moms

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD ABOUT THIS MUSIC!I was looking for a good worship CD that was basically scripture. I wanted something that would help me and my sons put God's word to memory and something we could sing together.

I'm signing off for the next week. I'm heading off on a short (3 hour) roadtrip with my boys to visit my sister. My dh is staying home eyeball deep in detective paperwork after a major break in a case he's been working on (he really is a Romans 13:4 minister and I thank God for him)! Even though I'll have access to the computer I've decided to go ahead and take the whole upcoming week off, except

On the way home from the gym this morning my 5 year old asked to listen to my ipod and so I let him. I just have my favorite worship tunes on there and the Searchlight Radio broadcasts (WHICH I LOVE!). I thought it was on a worship song, but when we pulled up into the driveway, Connor (my 5 y/o) was yelling, "Mom! He said Moses!" I thought he'd picked up on some lyrics from one of the songs or

"As for me, I will call upon God. And the LORD shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice." - Psalm 55:16-17The SHALL's are heavily emphasized to me when I read this verse this morning.

I read an AMAZING article by Elisabeth Elliot over at Gathering Grace this week. Today's quote to ponder and share your thoughts on is from the article:The routines of housework and of mothering may be seen as a kind of death, and it is appropriate that they should be, for they offer the chance, day after day, to lay down one's life for others. Then they are no longer routines. By being done with

I purchased this CD last week. It's been AWESOME! They are totally kids songs, but they're strictly scripture and fun to sing and we've got at least three or four embedded in our memories already without even trying! I've been playing the CD while we drive around in the car and while we do our chores in the house. The kids request it. And as I was singing the other day to it, feeling a little

I tend, I think we all tend, to polarize. We see it one way or the other. But God's ways are not our ways. In His wisdom, sometimes it's not one or the other it's both, sometimes it's neither.When the Angel of the Lord appeared to Joshua before facing Jericho, Joshua took his stand and called this Stranger out, and said, "Are You for us or for our adversaries?"

This month we began studying the Biblical holidays, starting with Passover. I've been seeing Jesus all over the place and learning more about the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses...Israel as I go.

Up to this month I've been planning a theme from scripture to teach my sons. This month I chose to dive into the exciting world of studying the Biblical holidays. In it the Lord is teaching the teacher as much or more than the students.

Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 1 Corinthians 5:6-7There's so much to take in from the pictures God paints in the accounts

A couple days ago the boys were playing in the backyard and came running in shouting, "Mom, there's swaps (that's how they say wasps)!" So I headed out to see where the swap was and found this! A mass of bees in my tree. Not sure what kind of bees, and knowing we've got Africanized bees in Arizona I hearded the kids inside. Later that day my husband came home to see and to exterminate.

I'm seeing Jesus daily as we sing, read, do crafts and talk about who our Passover is.Here's the centerpiece I put together with the boys using the instructions from the Biblical Holidays book (which I HIGHLY recommend, if for nothing else but personal Bible study and learning more about Jesus from the Old Testament).The

Today's the first day of Tuesdays for Timothy Moms! I thought a great way to start this weekly meme would be to write a creed. No this isn't a secret society or club. What I'm thinking here is more along the lines of a scriptural declaration of our individual stands as moms for our children to know Christ.Writing a creed, vision, plan, declaration...whatever you want to call it is not new, and

I recently got some comments from other blogging moms who also teach their children at home concerning Passover and scripture songs and they are great ideas! Thanks Prairie Chick and Rebecca for your input, encouragement and ideas.Prairie Chick suggested Sonlight's Sing the Word cd's. I surfed over there and found a treasury of resources. Depending on your budget, sounds like Sonlight's

Just wanted to share some of the everyday here. Often I think, "Now if I only had a camera so I could share this!" Many times it's something cute or wonderful the boys are doing, but there are also times when I'm thinking, "I need to share this so other moms don't feel alone and to ask for help!!"These pictures and video clips share just that.This one is one of those wonderful moments when the

I'm fascinated with the Old Testament as the Spirit allows me to see Jesus in the stories I feel like I'm getting to be one of those disciples He talked with on the road to Emmaus, hearing Him tell from Moses through the prophets how all of them speak of Him. So I'm really excited about this month feeding the little sheep He's entrusted to me. I purchased the book A Family Guide to the Biblical

Connor James, born April 1st, 5 years ago, just 20 minutes shy of April 2nd. I heard this song yesterday by Rich Mullins and it was exactly my heart for Connor.

What we've been doing:Our project for March with the theme, Sowing and Reaping, was building (thanks to my man for that part!), filling and planting a garden.It all started with our seed germination project in the house at the beginning of the month. Our sweet cherry tomato seedlings, sweet baby watermelons, sugar snap peas and hollyhock flowers all sprouted nicely in the house and now are

I don't know about you, but I'm pooped! I know we all have days when we're just spent and today I keep hearing the word of encouragement I've given to others at times, "He gently leads those who are with young...let His gentleness lead you." (from Isaiah 40:11). My precious man has been totally wiped out with the influenza virus. Now, we've had our share this winter of yucky cold viruses that

From the lounge group:I praise the Lord for a Godly Mom who taught me the ways of the Lord at an early age. She also has a Mom, my Grandma who I am very close to, and tells me she prays for me every day--she is 87 yrs old this year! What an honor to come from a Godly heritage, and I want that so badly for my own children. It is my desire to teach them the Word of God so they will know how to

I love Easter. For me it is a reminder of the new life I have (and can experience daily) in Christ. It's the beginning of a new season... brighter colors, vivid sunshine... a clean slate. Jesus was crucified for my sin and for yours, but He didn't stay buried. He didn't stay dead. He conquered sin and death forever! And that victory is evident by the empty tomb on the morning of the third day. (

Last week and the week before I've been blogging less and trying to figure out how to be a good steward of all God's given me with this new homemade card thing He's added to me. But so many great things have been happening along with struggles and issues that I've wanted to post about but haven't had a chance to.Here's just a couple of things:Our little sowing and reaping activity of planting

So, two things on my mind and heart in the past weeks. I'm pregnant. And I've also inherited a pseudo-mama-bear role for 35 teenagers. So on two fronts I'm thinking and meditating on God's design for sex and sexuality, purity and integrity, the pregnancy and birth process and the dating and marriage process.My babes are fascinated by my belly and are asking "when I was a baby?" type questions.

I'm so excited about this month's theme. God is already stirring up fallow ground in our hearts, planting seeds of His word and giving us peaks at the tiny buds shooting up from the dirty soil of our hearts!Everything about this month's theme is so ministering to me!This morning, and the last four mornings, I've tweeked our morning routine a bit so that before we do any t.v. watching, toy playing

This was posted over at Biblical Womanhood:"Few women realize what great service they are doing for mankind and for the kingdom of Christ when they pour their energies into maintaining a shelter for the family and nurturing their children--the foundation on which all else is built...No professional pursuit so uniquely combines the most menial tasks with the most meaningful opportunities." -

I'm really excited about the things God's laid on my heart for the month of March. Yesterday, I began implementing those plans with the purchase of a little watermelon germination kit from Lowe's. The boys had a friend over and we watered our little soil disc, waited until it reconsituted and then gently pressed our seeds into the soil. Now they sit in the window sill and we're praying for growth

This last week I was sick, my access to the computer was down, and I got an answer to prayer! Right now it's nearly 10 pm and I just wanted to get at least ONE of the pages of notes I've been jotting down to myself this week done, that is: Post video of the boys' puppet song.Last month the focus was Agape love and our memory verse was 1 John 3:16.

Reading E-mom's post this morning I was reminded of the Ultimate blog party (for non-bloggers too by the way :-). So I headed over to Five Minutes for Mom and read their invitation post to the 2008 Ultimate Blog Party. It sounds like fun and I thought it would be a great way to invite some more Timothy Moms out there to share their wisdom and encouragement here. Besides that there are prizes!Post

Kids of Courage is a ministry of the Voice of the Martyrs. My kids are a bit young to fully appreciate a lot of the Voice of the Martyrs and Kids of Courage material, but they do enjoy the Torchlight videos from VOM (We have William Tyndale, Jim Elliot, and Eric Liddell).I recently sat down to look over the materials offered at Kids of Courage and I feel like I hit a jackpot of resources.

As you may have noticed I changed the header and description of this blog from, "Taking up the high calling of teaching our kids God's word," to "Laboring in birth again until Christ is formed in our little children.- Galatians 4:19"What in the world does that mean? Teaching, I understand. Get out a book- the Bible, memorize some verses, do a "Bible" craft... right? Well, those are certainly all
