GREAT response. I totally agree with you. Also, if I am correct, there has been Biblical reconciliation with the family. What A BEAUTIFUL example. If we could focus on the good and not the bad, I think this would be an example to many hurting families. To reconcile and not split the home in two.

We follow Christ, not an earthly leader. I have been very impressed with everything I have seen with the Alert program. I also know that there will never be any perfect ministries this side of heaven because they are led by imperfect people. Even David, a king hand-selected by God, committed more than one grievous sin against Him. But, the entirety of a nation was not held accountable for it.

As a mom, we have a part/ responsibility in raising them to be men, as does dad! This ALERT is really unique. I like the focus on service and love the "militaristic" training to it. ALERT Cadet sounds like a fantastic option to gear up to it or even in itself.

It will be interesting to see if our other boys will want to join the ranks some day. They each have completely different passions and we do our best to show them love by encouraging them in those with one-on-one time.Jamie Ericksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07210544168493409813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-8982102767867302692014-05-19T10:28:34.289-07:002014-05-19T10:28:34.289-07:00Wow!

My first son is only 20 months old, but I've pinned this for future reference. I think it sounds like a really great thing to be a part of.
