Let The Children Speak

Our Father in Heaven has told us that He listens to us and He hears our prayers. If our Father hears us should we not also listen to what our children have to say? In this section we will take time to hear from children and learn about how they feel, what they think about, and what they are going through when they face different situations.

Our hope is that by hearing the children and sharing their heart you will find inspiration to see a different angle and will experience the children's heart and their faith.

Blended Family

In this video you will see the lives of three children who are living in a blended family. Croesus, Emma, and C.J. are the children of Christopher and Coria Brock and the grand-children of Robert W. Brock, Jr. who also wrote one of the life stories in this series. Through the video we will see their daily lives and hear about their experience and how they have adjusted to life as part of a blended family. We will also hear from Chelsea and Kalliop about how they views friends who are from blended families.

New Marriage

In this video you will see children of different ages expressing their opinions and views about what they believe marriage is for and what it will be like.

In addition, Billy Hartwig, the middle school minister at Greenford Christian Church, will be sharing the biblical truths about what marriage was created for.

Weep With Those Who Weep

No story on this earth is too tragic that it cannot be redeemed by God! He is the one after all that penned these words through His prophet Isaiah in Isaiah 61:2-3 "...to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion--to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair." It is the Fathers good will to restore all brokenness in this world to a place of healing and restoration. In this world we undoubtedly will have great trouble, but take heart, for Jesus has overcome it (John 16:33)!

God promises us that those who mourn now will be comforted (Matthew 5:4). This is truly such wonderful news in the face of tragedy. How can we come alongside those who have experienced great loss and tragedy? By following Jesus' example. We find in all of the gospels the phrase "and Jesus saw them and had great compassion on them..." Compassion is pity in action. When Jesus saw people suffering He acted on their behalf. May we all be more like our Lord in this regard and hold back nothing that is in our power to give to those who are suffering. "“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Matthew 25:40 NIV

While there maybe limited input from children in this video, we hope that you gain insight into how children who have experienced the loss of their parent not only cope with the loss, but actually inspire others.
