Just Outsmart Them


A place for concerned parents and clever teens… CLICK HERE

     Ok guys, here’s the thought behind this blog.  I wanted to create a blog that can be a resource to both the parent & the teen.  Perhaps you can think of this place as a common resource to help both the parents and the teens get on the same page. 

     Over the years, I’ve seen a lot of great parent/teen relationships and unfortunately, some not so great.  I’ve dealt with students who REFUSE to listen to their parents, some with good reason.  I’ve talked with countless frustrated parents who can’t seem to “get through” to their teen.  I think some parent/teen communication could be summed up with this pic below:

     But, with all of the complicated/frustrating/emotional/complex situations that I’ve been witness to, you know what I’ve found?  Almost every single scenario is fixable with the right approach…

    That’s what this blog is about, you outsmarting them rethinking the approach. 

    My goal is to discuss those unique/debatable/rock-and-a-hard-space/divisive situations that parents and teens find themselves in.  This blog should not be the definitive “Yes” or “No” for your family.  However, I pray that it puts your family in a position where you can simply talk and be on the same page with each other.

     As this blog kicks into gear, feel free to submit a question using the “ask me anything button”.  Amanda & I will chip away at various topics and even share some student testimonies along the way. 

I can’t wait to get started!

2011 Honduras Container Project

The purpose of this container is to help meet some desperate needs in the country of Honduras.  For years now our church has traveled down to Faith Home in San Pedro Sula to build structures, work on various repairs, do some general maintenance, and of course love on the children there within the orphanage.  This year we are adding to that list by taking on a new approach in our efforts to serve them.

We have purchased a 40 foot shipping crate to fill full of clothing (new & used), school supplies, medical supplies, and various other things.  Our goal is to ship the container to Honduras in April and have it ready for us when we arrive there in July.  We will then distribute the clothes to Faith Home as well as to the 17 church plants affiliated with their ministry!
