Great Great Moments in Family Devotions: His name is Peter…

Earlier this week when we were having bedtime devotions with the children, we mentioned one of Jesus’s followers, the apostle Peter. Our four-year-old son piped up: “Like Peter Tchaikovsky!”

There are times when you just can’t help but bust out laughing. This was one of those times. When I came up for air I looked over at my wife and asked, “Where did THAT come from?”

20 Ideas for 2010

20 random, some very strange, things to do in the year 2010, many of which you probably didn’t do in 2009:

1. Watch the movie 2010: The Year We Make Contact

2010, a sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey, didn't enjoy near the success of its predecessor.

2. Write your U.S. Senator and express an opinion on something important to you.

3. Walk up to a total stranger and say, “I am the very model of a modern Major-General.”

4. Go on a 3-day fast from the computer (including anyone else’s; i.e. no cheating).

5. Eat mor chikin.

6. Find a 80s song that you liked; dance and lip sync to it in front of your children.

7. Establish a new family eating tradition (example – breakfast for supper every Sunday night).

8. Read a book about a subject of which you currently know almost nothing.
