Understanding and Blessing Blended Families in Your Church

By Jay and Tammy Daughtry, | 09 Jun 2022

Blended, bonus, and step are a few of the words associated with a blended family. These families are not the same as first-time marriages where two people get married, grow together for a few years, and then eventually have children. Blended/bonus families usually become instant families right from the beginning. Every blended family is created out of some loss or misfortune.

Easter - Moving forward in Our Journey with God

By Daryll Stanton, NDI Global Resourcing Coordinator | 17 May 2022

This year, Ash Wednesday was on 2 March, marking the beginning of Lent on the Christian calendar. Its origin is from an eighth century practice of marking Christians’ foreheads with ashes. Sometimes the ashes were obtained by burning the palm branches from the previous Palm Sunday. This practice is also rooted in the Old Testament practice of using ash as a sign of penitence and mourning.

The Holy Spirit's Nudge

By Jim Clifton, NDI Educational Field Coordinator–USA/Canada Region | 17 May 2022

I woke up with a song in my head, not a hymn or chorus I was familiar with but a new song. I got up and started to write the verses, the chorus, and a bridge of that song. I was encouraged by what was written; it may never be shared by anyone, but it warmed my heart and refreshed my soul.

Redemption and Restoration: An Effective Approach to Managing Student Behavior in our Schools

By Marilyn J. Dominick, Chair of Nazarene Educators Worldwide | 17 May 2022

The most wonderful treasure of our salvation is the redemption and restoration offered by God through His Son, Jesus Christ. God loves us so much that He showed us grace and mercy that we did not earn and do not deserve. This is a precious concept that brings great hope to all of us who believe in Jesus. Along with that redemption is the promise in His Word that offers a restoration of what Satan tries to rob from us. God gives us a fresh start and the promise of a fulfilling life in Him. Our faith gives us this hope.
