On January 24, our youngest son (Tanner, pictured front & center) shared his personal decision to follow Jesus Christ through Baptism at University Baptist Church in Houston, Texas.
It was a great time of celebration, as we were joined by the wife of the Pastor who baptized me in May of 1979 and many family and friends. Pictured here, surrounding our immediate family are my brother, Blake, and his wife Kristen and their youngest daughter, Raegan. My Mom & Dad are to the right of Jennifer. I was honored to give a prayer of thanksgiving during the service–and I thanked God that I’ve now seen four generations of Christ-followers during my lifetime. It’s a legacy that’s important to Jennifer and me, in particular.
Speaking of Jennifer & me, the following day (Monday, January 25th) marked our 19th Anniversary… 19 years = 228 months = 988 weeks = 6,935 days…and counting…and I find that I love and appreciate her more every one of them!
A few years back, one of the first books I bought on Kindle was Family Driven Faith: Doing What It Takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God by Voddie Baucham Jr.
