THIS IS A PAGE IN PROGRESS.  IT WILL CONTAIN SIGNIFICANT DATA AND CONCLUSIONS ABOUT GENERATIONAL CONFLICT AND GENERATIONAL UPLIFT.

(Temporarily inserted from "Staking Our Claim")

And, we triangulate well.  It's a gift, but it's an acquired one, not accidental.   Each of us, Matt and I, lives out our life’s journey in pursuit of the heart of God, and we seek to amplify the gifts He’s invested in us as a means to best fulfill our calling, our purpose.  Then, we look to each other, wrapped in the culture of our respective generations, for companionship, for discovery, for accountability.  It’s a trust relationship that sometimes gets, well, “too” personal.

Then there are the kids.  Man, do we love them.  And we love the bright sparks of life we see in them. They’re the sparkles of hope to liven up the dull spots and soften the hard ones.  And we—again, “each” and “together”—apply the sacred realities of the full, wild, wonderful life there is in walking with God all the days of our lives...for generations to come.

Cultural demographers have names and traits for our generations.  It's important enough to undertanding fathers and their fathers and their children that we have added GENERATIONAL CULTURES to this site. Knowing Gary’s “Vet” or “Traditional Generation” and Matt’s “Generation X” and how we are guiding the “Millennial Generation” (and even the “Electronic Generation” for the two youngest) has proved more enlightening than we'd expected.  Gary has become a speaker and consultant in the practical applications of culture differences and cultural uplift to help ease the befuddlements and the pain of conflicts we don't solve well.
