My Non-Resolution List for 2014

By Craig Glass | January 3, 2014 | , , , , | 14 Comments

I’ve mentioned in a previous post, Hope for 2011,  that I’m not particularly fond of making New Years resolutions. I do, however, value the opportunity to recalibrate my spiritual compass by reviewing areas where I see a need for growth, and by clarifying priorities for prayer and choices I make in the coming year.

“Craig, there are no perfect dads, and you’ll never be one. But you can absolutely be a good enough dad.” Those were the words spoken to me by a family counselor some years ago. I found that honest appraisal reassuringly challenging. I knew there was progress for me to make…and that it was doable. How […]
