Mr. Yancy’s detailed description of this airport encounter stunned me. I put down his book, The Jesus I Never Knew, and contemplated the woman’s question. I realized for the first time that we have an awesome responsibility not only to teach our grandchildren about God’s love but to show them how to receive his love ..read more

Joy is part of the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) that comes from God.

Through the work of the Holy Spirit, every believer is to grow the fruit of the Spirit, giving them God’s joy. Those who recognize Jesus as the promised Savior and Redeemer of the world are filled with joy.  ..read more

Unfortunately, painfully tragic stories about grandparents being shut off from their grandchildren by one or both of the children’s parents is reality. While some of these situations could possibly be prevented, many may be outside our control. In either case, such situations, much like divorce, mean the children pay the heaviest price ..read more

Today, “passing the torch” conjures up images of the Olympic Games. We’ve all seen the runners carrying the Olympic flame around the globe and passing it from one to the other until the last one reaches that final destination at the current Olympic venue. In the earliest days of the Christian Grandparenting Network, our tagline and logo included such an image. You can see the figure of an older adult (grandparent) passing a torch much like the Olympic torch to a younger person. We used this visual as a way of reminding grandparents of the biblical mandate to pass the torch of God’s Word and th ..read more

Our Gregorian calendar marks February 14th as a special day, similar to Thanksgiving and Christmas. We set Valentine’s Day aside to celebrate and commemorate our love for one another. However, unlike the other holidays, most Americans are not familiar with the origin of Valentine’s Day. This is through no fault of our own.

As a grandparent you are the second most influential person in your grandchild’s life – more than teachers, friends, clergy, neighbors, coworkers, and other family members. Only their parents have more sway with your grandkids than you do. Did you know that you had that kind of power?  Today, grandparents are called upon to fill many different roles for their grandchildren. Here, at the Christian Grandparenting Network, our mission is clear: to encourage, equip, and empower grandparents to pass a legacy of faith in Christ to future generations.  ..read more

Fruit of the Spirit – Love
Christian Grandparenting Blog

The Bible’s definition of love is active, based not on human emotions, but rather on what we do. Scripture tells us God’s definition of love is the outward flow from inward growth of the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). It transforms us and shapes us into the likeness of Jesus. Instead of a sweet, sentimental, or romantic feeling, it is self-sacrifice, putting others’ needs before our own, following Jesus’ example and humbling ourselves as servants ..read more
