HOME (Family, Land, Shelter)

What is God’s plan for the home?

And you must think constantly about these commandments I am giving you today. You must teach them to your children and talk about them when you are at home or out for a walk; at bedtime and the first thing in the morning.

1.Home, a place that our feet may leave, but not our hearts
2.He is the happiest, be he king or peasant, who finds peace in his home.
3.He that has not rest at home is in the world’s hell.
4.Home is a place where the great are small, and the small are great.
5.Home is not where you live but where they understand you.
6.Home is the place where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.
7.Home is where life makes up its mind. It is there—with fellow family members—we hammer out our convictions on the anvil of relationships. It is there we cultivate the valuable things in life, like attitudes, memories, beliefs, and most of all, character.

Topic: A Better Listner

Many problems in the home are a direct result of poor communication. While both both husband and wife are responsible to communicate truthfully, effectively and biblcally with each other, the husband is the head of the household and thus carries the primary responsibility in ensuring that communication is taking place in the home. On this episode we will be talking about (Listening)Do not assume you know what your spouse is thinking. Do not assume that you know your spouses motives or opinions regarding a situation without first communicating and receiving the necessary information verbally. Remember, only God know the heart. "For I know their works and their thoughts Isaiah 66:18

Lying, Deceit,Falsehood, Untruth

                         LYING (Deceit, Falsehood, Untruth)
              Why is God’s judgment against lying so harsh?

Lying is a form of self-deception. Saul thought he had won a great victory over the Amalekites, but God saw it as a great failure because Saul had disobeyed him and then lied to Samuel about the results of the battle. Saul may have thought his lie wouldn’t be detected, or that what he did was not wrong. Saul was deceiving himself.

1.But a slip of the tongue you may never get over.

2. Better the feet slip than the tongue.

3.Birds are entangled by their feet and men by their tongues.

      4. A liar isn’t believed even when he speaks the truth.
      5. A lie is the refuge of weakness. The man of courage is not afraid of the truth.
      6. A lie travels around the world while truth is putting her boots on
      7.He who tells a lie is forced to invent twenty more to maintain it

These skills include the ability to perform domestic duties, to deal with financial responsibilities, to form lasting and healthy relationships, to communicate effectively,to be good parents and have a good prayer life.

Roman Barnes lives among the homeless and next to the fortunate, at the edge of hope. Among Pigeons is his journey from rags to revelation. His story exposes dueling societies that share more than they are willing to admit. In a weak economy many people are struggling to remain afloat, just as Roman, and many are one decision from living among pigeons.

In writing Among Pigeons, Doctor Wood, remembers his childhood treatment of a neighborhood homeless man, dubbed John-the-Bum. He recalls: "We treated him with contempt and hatred and I never looked him in the eye to see his equality with me. I never looked beyond his dirty face or smell to see his heart. I deliberately made every effort to remain far enough as to not touch him. It is clear that decades later, it was he who touched me."
Doctor Wood believes Among Pigeons, will right a wrong, raise awareness about the homeless and lift humanity.
Doctor Wood lives with his wife Vanessa Wood and youngest son Seth in San Marcos, California.
