Sweeter by the Dozen: Making Jesus the Lord of Our Family Size

As Christians, we are convinced of the importance of making Jesus the Lord of our life. But what does it mean for the number of children we have? In Sweeter by the Dozen, Randall Hekman shares the story of how he and his wife, Marcia, stopped trying to limit the number of children they would have and allowed the Lord to open and close the womb. He then gives his rationale for opposing the modern idea of family planning and responds to common arguments raised against having larger families. Here is a challenge to allow Jesus to be the Lord of everything, even your family size.
