Discover biblical character qualities that help children resolve conflict, grow in humility, and see their need for Jesus.

As you might have read in previous posts, every summer Barbara takes a “sabbatical” for a month. We put it in quotes because she doesn’t really stop working. But it’s a way for us to create some breathing space for her on the calendar. So we take the month of July off from our normal blog post schedule to create that breathing space for all of us. And it is a good reminder that we all need to create that space in our lives at some point during the year ... maybe more than once!

This month, we thought we would do something fun and pull out some of Barbara’s most popular posts that continue to rise to the top as people search on the internet for answers about the struggles they face in life. Perhaps you have landed with us in Ever Thine Home because you were searching for advice or guidance, and one of Barbara’s blog posts or podcasts was suggested to you.

For the next three Mondays, we will share a common question from internet searches—perhaps you might have searched the web for an answer and landed on one of these timeless articles. We pray you are encouraged as God meets you in Barbara’s writing.

“No parent can change a child’s heart, but we can train our children in the right way to resolve conflict and pray for God’s heart-changing power to work in them. This quality was a must for us because relational conflict will be with all of us for life. Helping our children be specific and name their sin sets them on the pathway to understanding their need of a Savior and establishing healthy relationships.”
