Think back to the last time you scrolled through social media. When you saw everyone out having fun, were you happy for your friends, or were you unexpectedly hit with loneliness? Have you lost touch with many of your friends? Does your family not get invited over to other people’s homes very often?

Have you ever gotten to the end of a day that was much harder with your child than you were expecting and been so discouraged that you started wondering where God was? Why didn’t he do more? Why was your family still struggling? Was he still committed to you and your family?    When we became parents 10 years ago, we believe God promised to provide for our boys every step of the way. While the journey has been harder than we expected, we have seen the Lord honor his word multiple times. He has continually used his scripture to show us his commitment and has shown himself faithful. Today, we’re going to show you how he once again used his word to reconfirm his commitment to us and how he desires to do the same with you.   NEW COMMUNITY If you’re looking for a kind and loving community with other parents who are striving to build resilient families, then join us in our new Facebook Group.

When your child has unique challenges, the stress feels constant while hope slowly fades. How do you bring hope back to your family? If hope even still possible? If so, what should you focus on?   Our family has thrived at times and struggled at others. What was the difference? It was whether we were actively working toward the one thing that could move our family forward.   This one thing will be the foundation of all our topics moving forward, so we hope you’ll join us today as we set the groundwork of how you can experience hope in your family again.   Connect with Michael: Facebook – @MichaelPritchard901 Instagram – @MichaelPritchard901   Connect with Christy: Facebook – @ChristyPritchard901 Instagram – @ChristyPritchard901

Being a parent hasn’t really worked out the way you thought it would. Your child has unique challenges and you’re at a loss on how to help him. As a result of these struggles, cracks in your other vital relationships, hidden beneath the surface, have begun to emerge. Your faith in the Lord has become dim. Your spouse seems distant. You’ve become isolated from your community.    If your child’s challenges stem from disability, trauma, or adoption, you need someone who has walked a similar journey. Join Michael and Christy Pritchard as they reveal the Family Framework that has kept their family strong for the last 10 years and teach you how to build your own.    Are you ready for your family to be filled with hope again? Join us as we build the relationships that matter…together.
