Why I Don’t Want Our Kids to Grow Up to Be Good People

October 13, 2019 10 Comments

When having a conversation with some friends the other day, we were talking about how most parents desire that their kids grow up to be “good people”.  Of course there’s nothing wrong with hoping for this, and I couldn’t put my finger on it at the time, but I knew that just “being good people” is not what I want for our kids.  For some reason the conversation made me feel unsettled inside. What kind of Mom am I to not want our kids to be GOOD?

Raising Kids to be Committed Christians–17 Tips from an Imperfect Mom

January 17, 2016 4 Comments

Recently a reader asked for advice on how to raise kids to be committed Christians. For Kent and I, this is our number one goal as parents, to raise up kids who love Jesus so they can know Him and be used by Him to help others in this world, and so we can all be together in the next. I just don’t see how anything else matches this goal when you think of eternity, but wow, it’s not easy, and I sure don’t have the magic formula. I’ve got some ideas though…

“I don’t know why, you’d want a guy, who only cares what he sees with his eyes.” I showed this to our younger kids and want to help them ‘get’ this now, before the world teaches them differently…

When You’re Tired of Always Being Needed

This is Why I Keep This Blog Around

January 20, 2013 1 Comment

Posts don’t go up here very often these days.  Between my Kitchen Kop blog and homeschooling, there’s just not time for much more.  But one thing I always do is keep up on my friend, Jen’s blog.  It was there that I found another gem that I had to share.  And since it’s not health or nutrition related, […]

I hope you’ll go see the movie, Courageous, at the theaters this weekend.  Why this weekend?  Did you know that the more people who see a movie the first weekend it’s out, the more widely distributed and more successful it will be?  And we all know that we need more movies to teach us, and […]

Hi I’m Kelly, a Catholic Christian, a wife, a homeschooling Mom, and a writer.  Matthew’s Gospel says, “Man does not live by bread alone” — and as passionate as I am about real food, nutrition, and natural healing, I believe that knowing the Lord is even more important!  So I started this blog in addition to my other one so I could hopefully help those who don’t “get” a lot of things about Christianity, which is just how I used to feel.

Over at my Kelly the Kitchen Kop blog I talk about how you keep your family healthy without going crazy in the process. 🙂
