IWU Authors Jim and Jerolyn Bogear on FamilyLife Today

Jim and Jerolyn Bogear, authors of Faith Legacy: Six Values to Shape Your Child’s Journey, will be featured on FamilyLife Today April 28th and 29th in an interview with Dennis Rainey and Bob Lepine entitled “Faith Legacy.” In Marion, you will be able to listen in on WGNR Moody Radio 97.9 FM at 9:30 AM or on WFRN 107.7.


The Bogears will share that Faith Legacy is about parenting with a plan. It is about living the legacy long before we ever expect to begin leaving it. They admit that they are no experts, but learning together with others on what has been a journey of raising kids to develop Christ-like characters, who in turn can raise their future children in the same legacy. The two-part feature will discuss the concept of the Legacy trip, a rite-of-passage trip that Jim and Jerolyn used to “hand off” and solidify the values they were instilling in their children from day one. They also address practical ways to model and teach these extremely important values to your children.

Jim and Jerolyn bring biblical knowledge and perspective to raising children in today’s culture, along with the experience of having raised three of their own. Jim graduated from IWU with a BS in Children’s Ministries and is the lead pastor of a thriving church in Sacramento, California, and has more than twenty years of experience in ministry as a youth pastor, pastor, and parent. Jerolyn graduated with a BA in English as well as receiving a secondary teaching certificate from IWU, and has home schooled their three children for more than twelve years.

The FamilyLife national radio shows provide practical answers drawn from the Bible to issues facing couples and families today to over nine million listeners each week.

Caroline Poland ’10

In January, Ms. Caroline Poland ’10 (Mental Health Counseling) was invited to travel to Cuenca, Ecuador to present a series of lectures at the University of Azuay. This was the first accredited University in Ecuador, and is the “academic capital” of the country. While there, she conducted seminars and discussion groups with professors and graduate students from the University, as well as physicians and counselors from the community.  While there, Ms. Poland lectured on the following topics:

 

1.     Wellness, Resiliency, and Job Burnout

 

2.     Work Life Balance with Mental Health as a Focus

 

3.     Wellness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a Way to Decrease Depression & Suicide

 

4.     Dealing with Depression & Suicide in Students

 

Ecuador is many years behind the United States in the development of Mental Health services, so it was an excellent time of discussions with those in the field.  The professionals we met are eager to learn, and accepting of any resources they can get. Ms. Poland has been personally invited back to speak and teach by the President of the University, and is already planning her next trip.

Alumna of IWU authors – again. "Craving Grace", Tyndale House Publishing

Lisa Velthouse is a freelance writer and speaker who has been working in communications and ministry for over a decade. She got her start in publishing at the age of 17, upon being selected from over 1,000 applicants to write a year’s worth of columns for Brio magazine. While writing for Brio, Lisa began speaking at national Evangelical events for teens, and she also got the idea for her first book, Saving My First Kiss, which was published shortly after she turned 21. In the years that followed, for a time she worked as a ghostwriter, and after that served two years on staff at Mars Hill Bible Church in Grandville, MI.

A believer in God all her life, during her mid-twenties Lisa began to feel disenchanted about him. So for six months she fasted from sweets, in an attempt to learn that God could be sweet. At the start of her fast, she doubted that the process would result in much more than mere discipline, if that. But half a year later, her life and her faith had been transformed. She could see for the first time that it was a story of grace, and she was surprised to find that God’s grace is the only true sweetness. Lisa tells the story of her sweets fast and of how life changed for her afterward in her newest book, a memoir called Craving Grace.

Lisa’s writing has been noted in Publisher’s Weekly and Focus on the Family, and she has been a guest on numerous nationwide radio and television programs. Her travels in speaking have taken her across the United States and abroad. She is married to Nathan, an officer in the U.S. Marine Corps; they live wherever military assignments take them
