    3-Letter Lesson #38: AGE
    2024/09/14
    After 12 episodes exploring a "new lens" for viewing Church and family, the Eyres get back to their ongoing series on "3-Letter Lessons"--little word-pegs that remind us of perspectives and attitudes we want to embrace. Today the word is AGE, and Richard and Linda advocate that age and its wisdom and perspective should be valued, respected, tapped-into, and even cherished-- much more so than it is in western society today.

  • (Re-run) PRAYERFUL PARENTING

    (Re-run) PRAYERFUL PARENTING
    2024/09/07
    (Re-run from 10/30/2020) Lincoln said "Sometimes I am driven to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I have no place else to go." As parents, we often feel this same feeling. Parenting is hard, children are complicated, the world is dangerous and confusing, particularly in this pandemic--and we are driven to our knees because we have nowhere else to go. And this can be a GOOD THING, because an earthly parent praying to a Heavenly Parent about a child that they share can create some of the most fervent, effectual prayers ever uttered. And it can generate answers that we would never find anywhere else. On today's show, the Eyres talk about parental prayer and how we can all make it a more important part of our lives.

    The POWER and JOY of 3-GENERATION FAMILIES
    2024/08/10
    Today the Eyres are thinking a little about ageing. But they are also talking about the fact that "family" should not just have the nuclear definition of parents and children, but the more common world definition of three or even four generations--often all living under one roof. They ask if, without living all together, we can partake of the benefits of 3-generation families. See accompanying article at latterdaysaintmag.com.
