We read a string of Scripture that ties together rest, marriage honor, family blessing, and self-control, then turn Psalm 101 into a practical guide for what we allow into our homes and friendships. We also share quotes from Salmon P. Chase, reflect on culture and education, and end by pointing back to prayer and the gospel as the best help we can offer our nation.
• Psalm 127 on God building the house and giving rest
• Hebrews 13:4 on honoring marriage and rejecting sexual immorality
• Acts 7 on Moses, deliverance, and the danger of idolatry
• Psalm 128 on joyful work, family blessing, and fearing the Lord
• Proverbs 16 on patience, self-control, and God ruling outcomes
• Psalm 101 as a blueprint for integrity and wise companions
• Salmon P. Chase on substantial religion, humility, and practical wisdom
• Thoughts on Bible courses in schools and Christian heritage claims
• Closing prayer and blessing for families and the nation
If you are looking for a middle grade fantasy series, kind of like Narnia, The Hobbit, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, if you would check out the countryside series
If you enjoy it, if you would leave a review online somewhere, I would be grateful for that
