WEEKLY ROUND UP 1

In the Moms weekly round up we will share articles, video clips and blog posts from around the web that we hope you will find interesting, encouraging or thought provoking.  Here are this week’s links:

Kathy Keller writes for The Gospel Coalition on why the city is a wonderful place to raise children.

John Piper shares a 2 minute video about a treasured moment with his grandchildren when he realized that kids feel what parents expressively feel.

Tony Reinke from Desiring God reminds us of Octavius Winslow’s encouragement on the global reach of a praying mother.

Richard Pratt from The Resurgence discusses, 'What does God want for families?'

Discover what’s Possible’ An encouraging article by Lisa Sexton from Focus on The Family about ‘daring to dream’ for her son who has cerebral palsy, and how we can support our children to realize their full potential.

And a reminder, from Mike Pilavachi’s twitter, of CS Lewis’ wise words, "When I have learnt to love God better than my earthly dearest, I shall love my earthly dearest better than I do now." 

We would love to hear from you if you have suggestions for next weeks round up, email us at moms@islandecc.hk
