Read MoreEphesians 2:10 states that we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Throughout American history and world history, for that matter, society has devalued those born with darker skin. In 1926, Carter G. Woodson, an African American historian and journalist, created Negro History Week, the second week of February, to acknowledge and celebrate the contributions of African Americans in America.

Read MoreWhen we observe Martin Luther King’s birthday (Monday, January 17th), we also can’t help but think about the Civil Rights Movement.

Many laws have been changed, and more are changing but there is still work to do to treat people fairly in our country and around the world.
Read MoreKing Solomon advised young people to enjoy every minute of their lives. Do everything they want to do. Take in everything but they must realize that they will give an account to God for everything they do. (Ecclesiastes 11: 9-10). As parents, you can help your child make the most of their young years by exposing them to God’s truth. When they know God’s truth, they will not waste their lives making unnecessary mistakes. They will be able to identify the lies the world feeds them. Teen programming at Eastern Star Church is designed to expose your child to the truth. Ensuring their participation will supplement what you are already doing at home.
