- Pursue an abundant life in Jesus together
- Put God First, husband next, kids after
- pray together
- Follow God's design for your family
- Don't group your husband with the kids, value him by giving him respect

- Agree on practical ways to protect your marriage (find ways to connect each day, not being alone with the opposite sex, sharing your feelings, alcohol can leave you vulnerable, etc.)

Announcements
Don't forget about our Movie night fundraiser this Friday night from 6-8pm at each Crossroads Campus. We accepted concessions donations at the meeting today, but you are welcome to bring more on Friday. You can also still sign up to serve at either the Millbrook Campus or the Wake Forest Campus.
If you signed up to serve, please arrive early for setup. This is a great opportunity to give back and your family can hang out and watch the movie in the process! They will be watching "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and the old "How the Grinch Stole Christmas". Each movie will last less than an hour. We look forward to seeing you there!
Today was our last meeting of 2019! We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and we'll see you back on January 14th, where we will hear from Teresa Glenn, author of "Becoming a Peaceful Mom." She will encourage and show us practical ways to have peace and partner with God as a Mom.
Nicole, Sarah, and Torri’s groups are responsible for bringing brunch.
