After a few months, we were scratching our heads and wondering why Nate, Mindy, and I […]

I remember reading a few years ago a sermon by John Piper where he reiterated some of the lessons that he learned from his father. I was moved by this sermon, and greatly encouraged in my own work of fathering my own children by looking at the example of William S. H. Piper. […]
