Do the Math

I  just had a thought about the FAITH 5 (below) and asking parents to commit to five minutes a night for seven weeks.

5 minutes x 7 nights = 35 minutes a week. Not too much to ask.

There's 10080 minutes in a week, so you're only asking for 1/288 of their time to invest in perhaps the most significant relationships in their lives.

Now picture this: According to the American Family Research Counsel, the average teenager in America is getting 37.5 minutes a week of one-on-one converation with their parents - excluding scolding and commands.

If all a parent is adding is 5 more minutes a night, that parent will be roughly DOUBLING the amount of parenting their kids are getting. And if the 5 minutes happens to walks them through the FAITH 5 as a rough structure,  these parents will be inviting God into roughly HALF of all the communication that goes on with their kids at home.

Half of the parent/kid talk as faith encounters, active listening, prayer and caring conversations?

That almost sounds like a Christian home.

WHY? Do you teach "IMMORAL, FALSE DOCTRINE", & teach the POOR "UNSUSPECTING CHILDREN" these "UNBIBLICAL LIES"? You call my FATHER YAHWAY-YAHSHUA'S "PASSOVER" easter? If you call yourself a pastor, & you went to seminary Bible college, "WHY" are you "LYING" about "FATHER YAHWAY", & HIS TRUTH? You "DISCONNECT" yourself with FATHER YAHWAY'S "COMMANDMENTS", especially HIS "SABBATH DAY", & it is "NOT" "SUN-DAY", the roman's day of worshipping their sun god! "REPENT" of you're "DEAD WORKS", & FATHER YHWY_YAHSHUA_RUACH may forgive you for "LYING" about "HIS HOLY WORD"?
