Family

I need to spend more time with Christian families. This week, I have shared some meals/evenings with a family that lives and "works" here in Antalya and it has been awesome. Since I don't, from my own experience, have an example to follow of raising children in a godly way, I ought to experience some of the ways other parents do this, so that I have a model to look to when I have my own family to raise. It was so cool to be a part of this family's nightly Bible story and question time after dinner, and it blew me away the questions a 7 year old child could answer. And it was incredibly humbling and embarrassing to see that these kids know more about the Bible than I do. I hope those of you who were raised in the Word, with godly parents as examples of how to live, know how blessed you are. I am realizing that I don't really know what a Christian family looks like at all, but I am grateful that God has provided us with a church family that we can learn from and hopeful that He will give me more such opportunities when I return to England.
