How to Care
Fiddle leaf figs are easy to grow, but there are some things to consider when bringing this plant in your home.
You need a spot with bright, but indirect light. This means you want this plant in a sunny room, but not right at the direct line of sunlight. So, close to a window or glass door, but not right in front of them if the sun shines directly into them.
For even growth rotate your plant every so often to keep the growth symmetrical rather than growing toward the sun. Some sources say every couple weeks and others say every 6 months. We recommend about once a month to begin with, but you can certainly observe your own plant to determine what is best for it in your specific location.
Avoid putting the fiddle leaf fig plant close to drafts of any kind. This includes drafts from a window, door, or vent.
Don’t forget to water, but don’t overwater either. This plant likes good drainage and is fairly drought tolerant. So the best way to water this plant is by watering deeply when the soil is dry. This will vary, so just monitor the moisture level by putting your finger into the soil about 2 inches or so. If it is dry go ahead and water thoroughly. Do not allow water to sit if you use a saucer.
Humidity is important. Since this is a tropical plant it likes humidity. The average humidity in a home will most likely be fine except for in winter when heat dries the air. We recommend misting your fiddle leaf fig daily in winter to keep the surrounding humidity up.
Dusty leaves. If the leaves of your houseplant become dusty or have water spots, simply wipe them off with a wet cloth. This keeps your plant happy and healthy and looking beautiful.
Potted plants do need fed more often than in ground plants. Feed your plant 2 or 3 times per year with our slow release fertilizer. This keeps your plant healthy, nourished, green, and growing.
Fiddle leaf figs do not require pruning, but spring is a good time especially if you want to shape your bush into a tree.

An Absolute Gem that shines with Jesus
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
This book is so good! It is full of biblical truth that is missing in much of Christianity. The author reminds us that Jesus is the whole point of the Bible.
Go. After. Christ. Everything else will follow.
Moralism does not save us. The love of Jesus does. Just beautiful. I wish the author had been my Sunday school teacher. All my life I've known the truth of Jesus. It's right there in the Bible, woven into every story. And yet I've still always felt like love was to be earned and moralism was at the front of my faith.
This book makes me see how the cross is what I need. Jesus loves me. He is for me. Morals don't earn me points with God. The blood of Jesus paid all. And my desire to obey and be like him flows out of my love for him... and his abundant love for me. ❤️

Best Children's Ministry Training Tool Available
Format: Paperback
"Show Them Jesus" is the best resource on children's ministry I have seen in 15+ years as a children's ministry director and I have recommended that all of my volunteers get their hands on this book as soon as they possibly can. Too often in children's ministry we've watered down the gospel or worse yet assumed the gospel and today many adults grew up in church and still have no idea how to answer the question of why Jesus died on the cross. This book reminds us that the cross is the central point of the Bible and therefore should be central in our teaching. I love the way the author takes us on his journey of learning to teach gospel centered lessons and shows us what he learned along the way. I love the fact that he encourages teachers to study and prepare the text their teaching on and not simply rely on the curriculum pieces (no matter how good and gospel centered they may be). I also really appreciate the practicality of the book as he gives suggestions at the end of each chapter on how to apply what you're reading right away in a classroom or at home.
If you teach in children's ministry or have kids you care about you should read this book!

Gospel Centered Gold
Format: Kindle
This book essentially takes the Christ centered theology taught by guys like Walter Marshall (Gospel Mystery of Sanctification), Horatius Bonar (The Everlasting Righteousness & God's Way of Holiness) and John Colquhoun (A Treatise on the Law and the Gospel), and it packages it in a way that is easy for anybody to understand and apply in the classroom. I have not come across another book that does this particularly for teaching children.
I highly recommend this book for those who are involved in children's ministry (even adult ministry for that matter). It will particularly help those in your youth ministries understand the law/gospel distinction and gospel motivation. Once the teacher understand this, it will begin to permeate his/her lessons.

"Moral reform is not the same as Christian growth."
A while back, a ministry acquaintance of mine decided to impart a little "wisdom" to this children's pastor. His advice? Well, in the context of discussing preaching and teaching, he said: "Kids just need to be told what to do." Explaining, he adding "Obeying parents, reading Bible, that kind of thing." Within context, he was heavily implying that they don't need theology, or the teaching about why we do what we do. Instead, he was settling for simple moralism. As an amusing contrast, I had begun reading Show Them Jesus only shortly before that.
Whatever good intentions may have lain in his heart, that acquaintance sadly failed to remember the axiom "Rules, without relationship, breeds rebellion." Show Them Jesus takes the Biblical philosophy that showing children Jesus, and helping them know him, allows morals and behavior to flow naturally from that relationship. Rules that children will want to follow themselves, rather than complain about and find every chance to break or bend, which is inevitable with simple moralism.
The book is divided into two sections. The first is "Why Teach The Good News" and the second "How to Teach the Good News." Each chapter within those sections has a title, a subtitle, and a relevant quote. For example Chapter 4 has "The Factory-Preset Fourth Grader" with the subtitle "Because the good news changes hard hearts." While the titles are usually inventive and fun, they are also insightful enough to specifically address the problem and solution offered in that chapter.
The basic premise of the book is summed up in a statement made early on. "Rather than coax the kids into temporarily acting better, Joe [a fellow teacher at the author's church] told about Jesus and trusted God to use that message to make the kids become better." The author, upon discovering this, tried it, tested it, and found it to be so true that he wanted to share it with the world. Hence, the book.
In the aforementioned Chapter 4, one of my favorite chapters, the author begins with an all too familiar situation. He had just finished teaching on greed, specifically, not being greedy. Next up was snack time, and the class promptly began fighting over who got more cookies. Noting that simply moral teaching just wasn't cutting it, as studies show, and lives display. Taking the time to dissect each of the good reasons we try to motivate good behavior, he finds each lacking when compared with a genuine fascination and love for God.
Part 1 absolutely shines in the approachable language, relatable stories, and Biblical evidence. His philosophy is, like the Bible, simple, yet profound. It strips away tradition to reveal the hollow human efforts behind it and instead purposes the solid and soul-transforming power of the Good News of the Gospel. At this point, I was begging to know how to best address this in my own preaching, and eagerly leaped into Part 2.
Beginning in chapter 6, the author begins on a slightly wobbly note. He admits he has never been to college, nor received formal training with teaching or biblical interpretation. Sadly, this shows. Chapter 6 covers showing Jesus from the Old Testament, and is populated by as many mountain peaks of beauty as it is valleys of misunderstandings.
One of the peaks is his looking at each passage in light of how man has failed (or will fail) through sin, and how God responds to that. This is formally known as Bryan Chappell's "Fallen Condition Focus." (1) Using this, the author rides this principle, not to the modern day, but first, to how Jesus either solved the problem, or offered a better solution than the one in the OT. He does this with one of three questions: "Who God is," "What God does," and "Jesus Solves Problems," This is actually a pretty interesting approach, and one that many teachers would benefit greatly from. He lays incredible emphasis on getting past the human players and looking to God for the lesson to be learned. He even recommends ditching pre-made lessons to try out this "good news" focused approach, an idea I (after reading far too many moralistic and simplistic and topical) I heartily agree with.
Later, however, the author writes that each passage can have several themes and main ideas. While that's true to a point, concepts like the "Hermetical Idea" and/or "Exegetical Idea" rely on the fact that passages contain one big idea, and additional elements explain or apply it. He also offers the idea that some OT passages are wrought with a "tension" and incompleteness until Jesus is applied. While this sounds nice, it also means saying that God's Word was incapable of conveying the truth he wanted until thousands of years after it was written. What then of the original, biblical author's intent to his original audience? Sometimes, it seems, in the eagerness to find Jesus, Show Them Jesus misses that God is also, well, God. Using the author's own approach to find how God loved sinners would show how God continued to love them in that way in Jesus, rather than heavily hint that there are/were problems with the Bible and it's stories until 33 AD. Thankfully, the remaining chapters, stepping into Christ's time, then into modern application, obviously don't suffer as much from interpretive issues.
Chapter 8 is heavy on practical application of this, not only in teaching, but in other classroom policies. It breaks down class rewards, discipline, corporate worship, and even how to handle misbehavior in light of the "good news" model. It's an incredibly hard-hitting chapter that needs to be read and re-read.
The final chapter ends with a reminder to stay the course, even when it doesn't seem to be working, or life is frustrating, or even you yourself struggle with this "good news" focus. Christ is there, he loves you, and he will aid you. The conclusion, featuring a sermon excerpt of Spurgeon's, as his Gospel-centered message inspired D. L. Moody to speak far more often of Christ in his own preaching. This hearkens back to the opening of the book, as there, another teacher inspired the author on his own journey. The book closes by challenging the readers to inspire those around them as they too teach Christ.
At it's brightest, Show Them Jesus is a brilliant beacon of hope that has the power to turn the stagnant and ineffective moralism upside down and inside out by reminding Christians of the power of God's good news in Christ. Like a surgical knife, it cuts away at false motivations and selfish desires to do right, and makes way for the Bible's truth to penetrate our hearts. He offers the problem, he offers a solution, and now it's our turn to step up to the plate and follow his lead in showing others Jesus.
Notable Quotables:
Chapter 1: Because Jesus is All We Need - "The good news means you relate to God based on what Jesus has done for you, not what you’ve done to prove yourself worthy."
Chapter 4: The Factory-Preset Fourth Grader - "None of us learns to love anyone—including God—by having someone tell us to love them. You love people because you find them beautiful and lovable, and because they love you. The good thing is that God is far, far more beautiful and love-worthy than anything or anyone else, and he loves us far, far more than anyone else ever could."
Chapter 8: The Grapes That Taught Good News - "The kids’ attitudes also confirmed what my gut felt when I first heard about the [Bible] bucks: a classroom culture built on rewards for performance wouldn’t fit the good news I planned to teach. It wouldn’t do to teach that God’s rewards in salvation come freely, by grace, but that rewards in the church come by being good and memorizing verses."
Chapter 9: The War on Sin - "Moral reform is not the same as Christian growth."

Full of great ideas
Format: Paperback
While not well written, the book does deal with a critical topic, i.e. Why do kids leave the church soon after Sunday school? Jack identifies the singular reason and gives very helpful examples of how to prevent the trend from continuing in your S.S. or home. It shows good hands-on, tried and tested ways, not just theory, to help kids (and adults) fall in love with Jesus. Jack reminds us that as teachers or parents we are totally dependent on the Lord to give us that love. I was also helped by the section on discipline/keeping order in the S.S. I expect to use this book to help improve the teaching and discipline in our S.S, Perhaps, most importantly, personal application is needed first.
