Each of the participants at the conference got the following questions to reflect on with God. Get alone with God, spend some time in prayer, and answer these questions. I pray that they are a tool to bring health and change to your families.
1. What is your favorite thing to do with your family?
2. How often do you do it?
3. If there was one thing you could change about your family what would it be?
4. What are some non-negotiable boundaries that you set as a church planting family? Are there any that you wish you could add?
5. Do you feel like the church plant takes precedence over your family?
6. When was the last time you went on a vacation? If it’s been more than a year, schedule one!
7. What steps are you taking to ensure that your kids don’t end up like the “preachers’ kids” we all hear about? What else could you do?
8. Are you protecting your kids from the ugliness of the church?
9. What is something practical you could do to help your kids know that they are more important to you than the church?
10. How much time do you spend teaching your kids about God (including teachable moments)?
11. Are you guilty of living in and teaching your kids to live in the bubble? If so, what are some practical things you can do to change?
12. How often do you pray for protection over your family?
