4 Ways Churches Can Support Families with Special Needs

Jul 18, 2024 | gospel1190.com | Megan Moore

1 Corinthians 12:12-27 tells us that the body of Christ is made up of many parts and that “God has placed each part in the body just as he wanted it to be” (v 18). We are all part of the body, and God has a role for each of us. While unintentional, churches are often lacking in supporting individuals with special needs, and therefore the body is not working as a whole.

How to Have Quiet Time as a Mom

Jun 4, 2024 | thewordsacramento.com | Megan Moore

For years, I have made an effort to wake up well before my kids so I can have time to pray and read my Bible. It is not easy, and many mornings I just don’t want to. I am so tired, and the bed is so warm. That extra half hour of sleep is very tempting.

I am more aware of the nudge of the Holy Spirit throughout the day when I open my heart and mind to Him in the morning.

A voice in your head telling you that you should be with your kids instead of working. Feelings of insufficiency as you scroll social media and see your mom friends who do crafts with their kids or make cute lunches every day. Telling yourself that you are a terrible mom and listing all the ways you think you have failed your children. Trying to focus on your children just to feel that you are neglecting your husband. These are some examples of the toxic trait of “mom guilt.” What Is Mom Guilt?
North Carolina should embrace an important change in how it aids people in behavioral health crises

Mar 21, 2024 | ncnewsline.com | Marvin S. Swartz |Megan Moore

People in behavioral health crises and their families are all too often dismayed to find that a call to 911 results in law enforcement taking them into custody to transport them for evaluation.

Contributing Writer Published Jan 17, 2024 I took my baby boy into the daycare I had carefully chosen and placed him in the arms of the sweetest woman. She was so kind as I looked at her with bleary eyes on the verge of tears. She told me everything to expect and what they would do during the day and sent me on my way. I looked back in the room before I left, and my little one was happily lying on the floor, grabbing at his feet. All of the other children looked happy.

Oct 14, 2023 | insider.com | Megan Moore

In my rural hometown, football is not a sport — it's a lifestyle. It's common for kids as young as 8 to have three-hour practice almost every day. I'm not letting my son play the sport so he doesn't miss out on being a kid. In my rural hometown, football is more than a game — it's a culture, a tradition, an unwavering lifestyle.
