Becky Lane - At a Crossroads: March 2013
http://beckylane-atacrossroads.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 22, 2013. Cake testing, bridal gowns, bridesmaids’ dresses, wedding venues – these are the plans that are underway for my son and his fiancée. In just six months, they will exchange their marriage vows. This is another path along my empty nester’s journey. I can’t help but look back at my little tow-headed tike and recall his quiet and playful spirit. Look at him now! All grown up and starting his own family. God help us at Family Talk to have a voice that speaks truth in love. I returned a...

Becky Lane - At a Crossroads: October 2012
http://beckylane-atacrossroads.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 25, 2012. There are days when I pinch myself and say, “Am I really a part of this? I think I’ve said before that I feel so honored to be a part of the ministry of Family Talk and to get to work with Dr. Dobson. Especially after my children left home, it has been an amazing blessing to have a job that is fulfilling and allows me to make a difference. Check out the photos of some of the work that’s been done this week. I’d love to hear from you. Friday, October 19, 2012. My heart sank to ...

Becky Lane - At a Crossroads: August 2012
http://beckylane-atacrossroads.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 30, 2012. I'm usually impatient about this step and actually have a hard time finding something to do in the shower while I'm waiting for the conditioner to do its magic. Well, after the shower comes the multi-step process of moussing and curl enhancing, not to mention the finishing spray. By this time and with all these products, you'd think I look like a wild woman. The goal, however, is just the opposite! Quite a daily operation, isn't it? 2 Taking shortcuts, like prematurely rinsing ...

Becky Lane - At a Crossroads: A Tea Time Thought
http://beckylane-atacrossroads.blogspot.com/2013/06/a-tea-time-thought.html
Thursday, June 6, 2013. A Tea Time Thought. I have several beautiful teacups. Most of them were given to me as gifts from treasured friends. Each of those teacups and saucers are unique in design, color and size. I also have a set of teacups that is part of the china I chose almost 35 years ago now. That set is delicate and lovely and makes a stunning presentation on a table because of their uniformity. But I absolutely love variety! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). God Can Change Me.

Standing Strong with Alex McFarland: True or False: God is Real, Part 2
http://standingstrongwithalexmcfarland.blogspot.com/2013/10/true-or-false-god-is-real-part-2.html
Monday, October 21, 2013. True or False: God is Real, Part 2. Every Effect Has a Cause. So the question up for debate isn’t whether the universe has an origin, it’s who—or what—prompted that beginning. Imagine you’re sitting in your living room, enjoying a peaceful afternoon while reading the paper. Suddenly, a baseball flies into the room, shattering your window. Obviously, your first question wouldn’t be, “How did that get here? 8221; It would be, in a highly bothered tone, “Who did this? Watch a sunse...

The Fatherhood Challenge: September 2012
http://thefatherhoodchallenge.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
I’m not a prude. My engine runs like most red-blooded, testosterone charged men. By God’s design, we are driven by a natural attraction to the opposite sex. And, we are biologically and emotionally compelled by sensual and sexual content. For those reasons, there is no denying that sex sells. But why are we allowing strangers to sell sex to our kids? As a desensitized culture, every day we are. Fathers, I ask you: Are we burned out, clueless, or just plain naïve about what is happening under our watch?

The Fatherhood Challenge: July 2012
http://thefatherhoodchallenge.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Getting on the Field. I wish I had all the answers. Maybe you’re like me, some days wearing regret for my shortcomings and failures as a father like a trenchcoat while jogging on the sun, and other days feeling I own the sun and it’s brilliance when I get something right. The truth is, no matter whom you are, being a father is a challenge. Perhaps I don’t really wish I had all the answers to conquering the fatherhood challenge. After all, what then would I learn? Maybe you have some of the answers?

Monday, August 26, 2013. 8220;That’s true for you, but not for me… Truth means different things to different people… there’s no one absolute truth for everybody…”. Ever had your Christian perspective rebutted by statements like these? The nature or essence of truth is often described using terms like “absolute truth”. Or “ultimate truth,”. Or (the term preferred by America’s founding fathers), “self-evident truth.”. Many today judge the heights of arrogance to be not only that some one would claim to know.

The Fatherhood Challenge: October 2012
http://thefatherhoodchallenge.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Scared - For Real. It feels like we’re living in crazy town. Earlier this year, a bright college student went on a deadly shooting sp. Ree in a local movie theater just a few miles from our home. In what made national news, a young local girl’s body was discovered, confirming the worst of her disappearance. Late that night I found my wife with her head in her hands, weeping quietly as she sat outside our children’s rooms in the dark. 8220;I’m scared,” she whispered. Then it hit me. I share her fear.
