What's A Mother to Do? Intergenerational Sunday Schools 

Bob Gilliam  T-NET President and Church Consultant

Being a "Creative Developer" can be dangerous!

I recall the day I learned how wings lift airplanes into flight. That was so exciting, I just had to implement my newfound knowledge. I hauled an eight-foot long one-by-eight board (weighing about 15 pounds) and some rope to the roof of the barn. My younger brother tied the board across my arms, and soon I was on a dead run that I was certain would have me gliding off that roof for miles and miles . . . when my mother's screams stopped me from death (or something like it.) As a child, that mixture of creativity and inexperience often led me to the brink of disaster. And I have a much greater appreciation for my mother!

We were eating a wonderful dinner in a home that underlined the success my host enjoyed in everything he set his mind to. I liked this man and had great respect for him, so when I struggled to come up with an explanation I am certain part of it was my own sense of failure to find adequate ways to restrict monthly board meetings to more manageable lengths. Yet, it's not like I was enjoying them so much I didn't want them to end.
