Week 6 50 Day Challenge

For those of you following along, this is Week 6 of the 50 Day Challenge.  Progressing through Psalm 128, this week we discussed "...Your children will be olive shoots around your table." Here are this weeks Challenges:

• Leave notes for your kids around the house.  - The goal is to bless and encourage them even when you are not physically there.  Make sure to do it while you're there as well!
• Pray with and over your kids.* - Praying for them is good but don't forget to pray for them, in front of them.
• Volunteer to spend time with the kids while your wife enjoys time with friends or doing something she likes. - This blesses your wife and you get to spend quality time with your kids.  A win all the way around. 
• Ask & share your favorite scriptures with your family...& what God has been teaching you. - If you want your kids to talk about scripture and how God speaks to them then you are going to have to model it.
• Set up a meal with a mentor or someone you respect as a Christian/Husband/Father. - Maybe its an early breakfast or a quick lunch but find someone that you think "I like where they are as a Man" and pick their brain to see what influenced them to get to where they are.
• Listen to/watch a podcast with your wife/family.  - This is what I like to do because podcasts are quick and easy to download and listen to.  The goal is to discuss the word of God outside of and in addition to church.

Keep up the good hustle!  If you are keeping up with these challenges, my prayer is that you are seeing the fruits of your labor!
