Friday Five (11/8/13)

1. New (to us) Family Activity - Geocaching

Did this last night with the kids and was a big hit. Think treasure hunt using GPS. It's a blast. There's plenty of treasures to find right here in Taylor County! Find all the details here. 

2. Five Conversation Jumpstarters for Families - (via Radical Parents)

We want you to talk to your kids and we want them to talk back to you. Most all parents know that sometimes this is easier said than done. Today we want to offer you 5 ideas for starting a conversation with your teenager.

 3. A Biblical Alternative to Nationalized Healthcare - (via Bob Russell)

rather than just ridiculing the government’s incompetence, can anyone present a realistic alternative to solve the nation’s complex health-care problems? I wish public officials would consider some basic principles from the Bible about caring for the poor. While the Bible is primarily a book introducing us to salvation through Jesus Christ, it is also the best blueprint for a good life here. CHECK OUT BOB'S GREAT THOUGHTS HERE

4. Emotional Baby - (via YouTube)

5. Quote of the Week - (via Carey Nieuwhof)

Anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured. -- Mark Twain

Have a great weekend!
