What a powerful Thursday morning at Loganville Rotary Club! ☕
We were honored to have Lee Wood bring a thought-provoking message on one of the most important roles any of us will ever fill — being a parent, grandparent, or caregiver to the children in our lives.
Lee challenged us to plan ahead in our relationships with our kids, grounding it in Luke 14:28 — count the cost before you build. Intentional parenting doesn't happen by accident. It starts with a plan.
He also offered a perspective on discipline that reframes the whole conversation. Rather than simply punishment, Lee defined it as:
"Training, instruction, and guidance through the application of truth and principles — with the result being the disciple having the tools and wisdom of how to use them to successfully function in the realm in which they are being taught."
That's not punishment. That's investment. 💛
And when children understand expectations and consequences in advance, as Melanie Rawn wrote, a choice made with full knowledge is a conscious and informed choice — and that's where real growth begins.
Lee gave us a lot to think about — and a lot to go home and put into practice.
This is Rotary at its best. 🔵
