But something is lacking. What is it? What can we do to keep them (and ourselves!) Home? What can we do to grow strong? Is it something we can do together and help each other with? Or is this all individual effort? Or maybe a little bit of both? I dunno. :confused:

These are great questions that I ask myself, too. I think those of us with kids can\'t help but ask them. Though I\'m a convert, my kids are cradle, and I wonder what power--if any--I have to instill love of the church in them.

I think the \"secret\" is to ask the questions you\'re asking. Humble, prayerful introspection will provide us the answers. I don\'t think condemning the heretics for ringing our doorbells will help answer these questions.

Vino, would you be willing to start a thread so we can hear how you would answer these questions? I would love to hear others\' answers, too.

Be the first person to like this.
