I just wanted to pass on some additional resources to you on last Sunday night's message at Kaleo, "Why husbands and wives should invest in a missional home". If you missed Erick's message you can download it here (he sounds like he is yelling because it was pouring very loud rain). Also if you want to listen to the first three messages in Kaleo's relationship series here they are:
Message 1: Marriage: Creation, Frustration, and Redemption
Message 2: Biblical Masculinity
Message 3: Marriage: Living Gospel Reenactment
Message 4: Why Husbands and Wives should invest in a missional home
The following are books (and two blogs) that I have read and have inspired me to create a godly missional home and help me be excited about being a wife and mom! Also, I want to encourage you all to come Sunday Morning to Faith Bible Church. Chris Mueller will be preaching through Ephesians 5 for the next few months! Please join us!!!!

*I have not read the above two books (too thick for me, 500-700 pages) but Erick has read them. They answer a lot of questions on this subject.
Hey Tasha. I've been meaning to call you. We are working on getting the kids watched for Friday night. Hopefully my parents will be able to watch them. I will keep you posted. Holly
