Anyone who has kids will be able to tell you how quickly time passes. It seems each year and each child we have time spins faster and faster. Our oldest daughter’s five years have flashed before our eyes in a blink. When we think about this time passing so quickly, we also want to think about how we are using that time. Are we using it to engage our children in loving ways and teach them about their Creator, or are we letting those precious hours and minutes slip by. This podcast will discuss how we can be engaged with our children while we still have them.

Show me, Lord, my life’s end and the number of my days; let me know how fleeting my life is. Psalm 39:4
