Life Group Family & Friends:
We completed week 4 of the It Starts at Home series on Saturday night. We were challenged to adjust our lense as parents. Instead of trying to make our children into perfect, obedient soldiers that will not embarrass us; we need to look through the lense of our children are sinners that struggle with seeing the eternally compared to the earthly. Matt Chandler stated "The Bible is pretty clear that ultimately what's wrong with our children isn't some sort of moral external action, but really a state of their heart..."

The challenge for the week is related to the Denial message Todd gave this weekend. I challenge you to the spiritual fitness of fasting. It can be a family or individual fast. You can fast from food for a day, soda for a week, TV for a week, Facebook, etc. Make it memorable. When you think about TV, food, facebook, Dr. Pepper, etc., use that as a reminder to pray and to memorize the scripture we have been learning the last couple months.
Be Intentional.
