Our world is fractured and disjointed. The brokenness of of our culture and institutions seems to be leading us down a path to destruction. How can we repair the damage? Is it possible for us to step back from the abyss before it is too late? Have you ever wished you could climb up on your mother or grandmother's lap and ask them what direction to take? There is a mother in the Bible who has the kind of wisdom we need. Her name was Mary, the mother of Jesus. We are told that she guided and nurtured her son so that he grew in wisdom (intellectually), in stature (physically). in favor with God (spiritually), and in favor with man (socially). He had the balance and wholeness that His heavenly Father designed into humankind. The absence of any of these ingredients creates the lack of completeness our modern world suffers. Where is Mom when we need her?
