10 Educational Benefits of Bringing Children to the Museum

Encourages a Love of History Museums are the caretakers of history as much as they offer connections to history that can easily be overlooked in traditional classrooms.  Whether you bring your child to a children’s museum, art gallery, or science muse Listening to Stories While interning at the National Museum of the American Indian (NAMI), I had the opportunity to visit dozens of museums the summer I graduated from college.  From the Museum of Modern Art to the Whitney to the Air and Space Museum to Holocaust Memorial Museum, I was able to walk through hundreds of exhibits and learn the importance of storytelling.  Museums are full of stories, and it is critical for our children to hear those stories.

The Prayers of the Spirit (Josh Buice)

Y esterday I had the privilege of preaching Romans 8:26-27 as we continue to walk through the eighth chapter of Romans. The text is centered upon the subject of prayer and Paul explains how the Spirit of God helps us in our weakness.  Prayer is one of those subjects that goes unaddressed by many pastors and consequentially it becomes ignored by many believers. Bad habits often continue on from a child through adulthood without being corrected. This can lead to severe problems regarding the spiritual walk of a believer along with an ongoing pattern that’s passed on from one generation to another.  Consider the prayer life of James, the half brother of Jesus. He became a follower of Christ after Jesus’ resurrection and rose to the leadership role of the church in Jerusalem. He was martyred for his faith in Christ, yet, what we often don’t hear about James is that he was a prayer warrior.

Well the answer is quite simple! Would you install your electrical when you are not an Electrician? Now you may take a stab at it because it ma VISION TO REALITY Corporate event planners are in the business of making dreams come true. It is their job to take your vision and make it a successful reality. Due to this, planners tend to look at events in a different way. Trust a corporate event planner to turn your ideas into a successful party for you. THINGS JUST LOOK BETTER Most of us don’t consider the psychological impact of how chairs are angled, nor do we think of the effect that certain colors have on guests. Rather, when we plan an event, we focus on the practical and technical needs. How many chairs should there be? What food should be served? A professional event planner, on the other
