Arrows in Our Hand: Parenting with a Purpose

Wesley Skelton & Denise Skeltonthelightnetwork.tv
Arrows in Our Hand-Parenting with a Purpose is a podcast designed to encourage parents as they guide their children to Heaven. Although the world does not view children in this way, Psalm 127 says that children are a blessing from the Lord, as arrows in the hand of a mighty man. Wesley & Denise bring two episodes a month to help remind godly parents of their children's worth & how to help guide them to Heaven.
