Former pediatric nurse, Bethany Adkins knew that God was telling her it was time to make a change. Like many women, she fell into the trap of thinking that her worth can through her degree, a job, and everything that our culture pushes people to do. It became a tug of war on her heart, and God was telling her it was time to stop.
Bethany and her husband Corey found a passion for helping other Millennial parents and adults break the stigma of the “lazy millennial” and get tools with raising the next generation. Through her new book, the My Why Journal, she helps parents work with helping kids learn to ask good questions and where to find answers. Through this dialogue and intentional conversations, she believes that our conversations with our kids, no matter the age, affect our relationships with them and how they relate to culture.
Romans 12:12-23-
Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.
Now if the foot should say, “Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” it would not for that reason stop being part of the body. If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be? But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be. If they were all one part, where would the body be? As it is, there are many parts, but one body.
The eye cannot say to the hand, “I don’t need you!” And the head cannot say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty
