Great Words and Perspective from our President and CEO

Our Children are stressed right now, and the typical โ€œdiscipline dadโ€ and โ€œmad momโ€ reactions can be mentally detrimental for them during this unprecedented time.
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Studies on children in a variety of settings show conclusively that parental neglect disrupts the ways in which children’s brains develop and process information, thereby increasing the risk for attentional, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral disorders. โ€” Center on the Developing Child, Harvard University
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ € โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
So, I wanted to transparently share this throwback moment in hopes of encouraging parents who are experiencing a decline in their childโ€™s behavior and/or academics during the COVID-19 pandemic.
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
Pastorโ€™s kids arenโ€™t the only ones who feel neglected, but also children of CEOโ€™s, Entrepreneurs, Teachers, Doctors, Lawyers, Professional Athletes, Activists, Mentors, Coaches, Actors, Musicians, etc. Two years ago, I too was guilty, and the Holy Spirit had been telling me that my son was feeling neglectedโ€”and this one morning it was confirmed.
โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €โ €
After a heart-to-heart conversation, I apologized and reassured my beloved boy that he is my blessing from the Most High and that I would drop it all for him and our family. This is why Iโ€™m not quick to jump on a plane for a speaking engagement. #SavingBoys worldwide would profit me nothing, if I lose my own son in the process. Although I am very content with being known for who I am in my home and not what I do in public, I still have to stay on guard against to the grinding lifestyle so that I do not neglect what matters the most.
