Worship Training Begins at Home
Training Up in Worship: Begins at Home Maybe you are thinking, “What’s the big deal? They are just kid’s let them be.” The big deal is these babies, toddlers and children will not remain children for very long. They will soon enough grow up and begin to form their own opinion, their own choices, and they will become responsible for their own actions. They will be responsible to the Lord God of Heaven for the choices they make. Your job as a parent is to train up or prepare their hearts for these choices. If you wait until you can reason with your child, it may be too late. We…

Training Up My Little Prince
I love teaching the fruit of the spirit to Little Man. In our academy, home and life you might often hear me ask him, “Does that attitude reflect the fruit of the spirit?” or maybe you will hear, “Are you showing self-control?” Or any of the other attributes to the Fruit of the Spirit. This post contains a children’s book review. I received this book for free from the author, all opinions are my own and I was not instructed on what to write. This post also contains affiliate ad links where you may purchase this book. When I learning of Author Danna J. Walters and her book “Every Good…

A Change of Time
It’s Spring Forward Sunday morning. It’s very early as I’m up and about getting ready for worship. I’m tired after losing an hour of sleep. AND we decided to get up early because I have some prep work to do for the Bible class that I teach before the start of class. Little Man spent the weekend with his grandparents so it’s just me, Beloved and our trusty pet Martha about. We can get ready so much faster, but I truly miss him. As the first light begins to brighten I find myself reflecting on Little Man’s homeschool Bible study this week. The day the sun stood still because Joshua…

Five Minute Friday: Feeling Ordinary
It’s Five Minute Friday. I link up with Lisa Jo Baker where she gives about 100 or so bloggers a weekly prompt with the goal of them each writing for 5 minutes flat.Today’s Prompt:OrdinaryGo.That’s exactly how I feel during this very late night. – OrdinaryI’ve had a lot of very late nights lately. I mean very late. I find myself falling into bed near dawn. It’s not that I don’t want to go to bed. It’s that my body isn’t letting me sleep. Tonight I tried. I really did, and my body just couldn’t get there. I laid there contemplating life while talking it over with Father. Ordinary was exactly…

We Use Bible Study Guide for All Ages
A complete Bible Curriculum Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links. Please see my disclosure for full information. Thank you for supporting Great Peace Academy. I want to tell you about the Bible curriculum we are using in our homeschool this year. Let’s face it, there is a lot of material out there, but with so many denominations in this world, of which I am not a part, it is hard to find material that I can rely on to be sound in biblical doctrine. My family and I along with the other Christians of whom we fellowship seek to only teach and learn from the Bible. We do not believe in…

O Worship the Lord
The LORD is God of all. He is the creator of this world, this universe and all that is in them. We try to stand in society and debate this. We try to prove it. But scripture tells us: Did you know that God does not need us to defend Him? No, God will defend those who rejoice in Him. But He doesn’t need us to defend Him. He is Judge. The judge does not need a defense. He calls us to Worship Him. If we do that, we show our faith to the world. He calls us to love one another, by this we declare we are his disciples. He…

The Light of the World
On the first day of creation, God said “Let there be light, and there was light.” Have you ever taken time to think about that? I’d like to ask you a question to consider. What is the source of that light? One might say, The sun, it is the light of the earth. God must have created it first. If we continue reading through the Genesis one passage we learn that it was on the 4th day of creation that He created the sun, the moon and the stars, (Genesis 1:14-19). So that takes us back to the first day and leaves the question unanswered. What was the source of the light…

Praise for the Lord
I couldn’t say it any better than this. This is how I wish the leaders of our government would honor the one who gives so graciously…. I Chronicles 29:10-18 10 Therefore David blessed the Lord before all the assembly; and David said: “Blessed are You, Lord God of Israel, our Father, forever and ever.11 Yours, O Lord, is the greatness,The power and the glory,The victory and the majesty;For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours;Yours is the kingdom, O Lord,And You are exalted as head over all.12 Both riches and honor come from You,And You reign over all.In Your hand is power and might;In Your hand it is to make greatAnd to give strength to all. 13 “Now therefore, our God,We thank YouAnd praise Your glorious name.14 But who am I, and who are my…
