Marriage is the formation of a household. A little world, with its own order, its own rituals, its own story. A generation that can't build one is a generation with nowhere that's truly home.

Want your kids to pray as adults? Start praying with them today. "Parents who prayed every day had a 47% chance of raising children who maintained a regular prayer life in adulthood, compared to less than one-third among parents who did not pray daily." @Samantha_Kamman @ChristianPost @Jpdegance christianpost.com/news/kids-…

Mom and Dad staying together matters for kids embracing the faith as adults. BOTH of you having strong relationships with your kids impacts their future faith practice. "Children who report a strong relationship with both parents are 97% more likely to believe in God as adults than those with weaker parental relationships." - @MinistryWatch @Jpdegance Read more here: 👇 ministrywatch.com/avoiding-f…

The best predictor of happiness? Marriage! Get married. Don't let perfect destroy good. @AEI @jpdegance aei.org/op-eds/the-best-pred…
We’re setting up young couples to believe they must wait until everything is perfect. But budget-busting weddings create an expectation of a perfect life, writes @Jpdegance. Read more: on.wsj.com/4vPogr9

Parents who worry about “pushing religion too hard,” take note: Kids whose parents talked openly about faith several times a week were twice as likely to attend church, pray regularly, and say religion is important as adults, per our new report with @WeAreCommunio

New study @WeAreCommunio & @FamStudies: the family is a primary engine of faith transmission: ✔️fully 41% of kids who attend church w BOTH parents grow up to be weekly churchgoers ✔️just 29% when only one parent attends When both parents pray, read scripture, talk about faith at home, children are far more likely to carry that faith into adulthood. The home, not just the church, is often where faith is formed or lost. 🧵

The storming of @citieschurch was hardly "peaceful" as the city claims. Government officials have the duty of "punishing the wrongdoer." "...mob behavior does not erase the God-given rights of law-abiding people to worship in peace." -@jpdegance townhall.com/columnists/jp-d…
The city of Saint Paul has officially determined the January 18 invasion of our church and the desecration of our worship to be a “peaceful protest.” Here’s my question for Mayor Her:

The median age of first marriage in America is now 30.8 for men and 28.8 for women. In 1975, it was 23 and 21. Here's a culprit no one's talking about.

A backyard wedding isn't a lesser wedding. A church ceremony followed by a modest reception isn't settling. Starting married life with savings intact isn't unromantic. What's unromantic is a $33,000 loan at 12.65% APR before the honeymoon.

Parents and pastors need to be part of this conversation — not just preparing couples for marriage, but helping remove the barriers keeping them from it. Read the full op-ed in @WSJ today from @Jpdegance: wsj.com/opinion/free-express…
