Yes, this is funny. Its about Tuna fish and jackets. But, there is a point to my post.
Do you listen to your kids? Did my parents listen to me? Do we really know the youth we work with?
Listening is hard. Its not easy. My mind wanders to my to-do list, what I’m cooking for dinner, how many calories I’ve eaten today, or how I can one-up there story by sharing a story of my own. Listening is not easy.
One way of knowing and discipling your children better…is to listen to them. Hear them, engage them, get to know what they like and don’t like, get to know their fears and their struggles, their joys and hurts. And, yes, don’t take them to a seafood restaurant if they don’t like seafood.
