John 10 reports Jesus' protective measures as the Good Shepherd. ⁠ ⁠ Jesus sets limits around his sheep. He is the gatekeeper. He's aware of the thieves and robbers that try to enter a different way, trying to harm the sheep. ⁠ ⁠ Oh, friends. A scene could not depict the church any better than today. The enemy of God is deceptive, trying to harm those who walk with Jesus. He wants to corrupt you and your children. ⁠ ⁠ But Jesus is protective over his sheep. He knows the enemy and guards against him. We would be wise to model His example and counsel.⁠ ⁠ Please, take seriously the messages, beliefs, and influences in your children's lives. But it's got to start with you. ⁠ ⁠ What is trying to steal and destroy your beliefs about God, yourself, and others? Are you in God's word, yourself, or just reading about the Bible or learning from your favorite pastor or teacher? ⁠ ⁠ You have to be in the Truth so you can know the counterfeit. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #Christianity #bible #bibleteacher #retreatspeaker #godlyrest #bible #wisdom #godlywisdom #godlywomen #family #Christianservice #christianfamilies⁠ #lifebeyondthepicketfence #brendayoder #church #connection #friendship #suffering #JesusChrist #moms #mops #motherhood #christianmoms #guardrails

It’s been a rough year. Have you had seasons like that? . . What I learned in the desert land is how important faith is. Not just church type faith, but holding on faith. . . The type of faith that believes what you know is true, even when you don’t feel it. . . The enemy of God wants you to focus on your feelings instead of the truth. . . I’m thankful I hung in there. Faith brought a smile back on my face. . . Thanks @cspenc0619 for capturing that hope again.

Humans thrive when they are loved, have connection, and community. Kids thrive when they are seen and known. ⁠ ⁠ Teens, especially, want an authentic relationship with their parents, even when they are surly, moody, and disrespectful. ⁠ ⁠ If you have a hard time responding to your teen when he has big emotions, disrespectful words, or reactive behavior, join the Fledge Parent Forum on Facebook and watch this week's broadcast to learn how to engage Relationship Parenting when your kids are disrespectful. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #Christianity #bible #bibleteacher #retreatspeaker #godlyrest #bible #wisdom #godlywisdom #godlywomen #family #Christianservice #christianfamilies⁠ #lifebeyondthepicketfence #brendayoder #church #connection #friendship #suffering #JesusChrist #moms #mops #motherhood #christianmoms

Will you pray for me this month as I speak to a couple of hundred students in local high schools on healthy boundaries, healthy relationships, and dating violence?⁠ ⁠ Did you know women ages 16-24 are 3x more likely to be in an abusive relationship than any other age group? ⁠ ⁠ I asked some teens why they thought this was so. ⁠ ⁠ * Because they learn from it, they said. ⁠ ⁠ We need to help our kids to learn before it happens, to equip them to know how to leave a relationship before it gets bad, and support them when it does go wrong. ⁠ ⁠ Each class tells me relationships in general are more manipulative, intimidating, and less caring. ⁠ ⁠ We've got to do our children better. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #healthyrelationships #guardrails #parenting⁠ #Christianity #bible #bibleteacher #retreatspeaker #godlyrest #bible #wisdom #godlywisdom #godlywomen #family #Christianservice #christianfamilies⁠ #lifebeyondthepicketfence #brendayoder #church #connection #friendship #suffering #JesusChrist #moms #mops #motherhood #christianmoms

I'm excited to kick off Season 2 of the Life Beyond the Picket Fence podcast with an interview with New York Times best selling author @triciagoyer on her new release The Grumble Free Year. ⁠ ⁠ We chatted about the humbling experience we parents experience when we hold ourselves to the same standards we hold our kids too. She and her family worked on their grumbling problem for a whole year! ⁠ ⁠ Find out what they learned and practical tools you can learn from this week's podcast, episodes 1 and 2! ⁠ ⁠ Link in profile. ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #Christianity #bible #bibleteacher #retreatspeaker #godlyrest #bible #wisdom #godlywisdom #godlywomen #family #Christianservice #christianfamilies⁠ #lifebeyondthepicketfence #brendayoder #church #connection #friendship #suffering #JesusChrist #moms #mops #motherhood #christianmoms #triciagoyer #grumblefreeyear

Few things bring me more joy than talking to women, encouraging moms to fledge their kids well, and traveling with with great friends. . . I scored big in all three areas this weekend at Iron Sharpens Iron in the Quad Cities with @kimmishler5. . .
