Well I spent part of Father's Day re-evaluating how I'm doing as a dad. If you want to have a taste of reality ask your kids: how am I doing as a dad? Healthy question to ask your kids!

Also spent some time updating our boys discipleship program for the year.  We committed to three challenges--intellectual, spiritual, and physical. And we have weekly FSMs--Father/Son Meetings. We've certainly had our ups and downs. But I'm thinking we'll hit a little stride during the summer. 

We've read half a dozen books so we're halfway there on the intellectual challenge. The physical challenge is running and biking.  And the spiritual challenge is reading through the New Testament. 

Let me come out and say it: the deepest desire and greatest challenge of my heart is to be a great dad. I'm so far from perfect. But I'm determined to disciple my kids! And...I absolutely love it.
