Meck Institute

Does your son or daughter have a smartphone? Or maybe a tablet? With access to more and more technology comes the world of social media, video gaming, YouTube and more. As a parent, it can be hard to keep up with, much less navigate, what platforms your kids are using these days. In this extremely practical class, we'll introduce the most commonly used media outlets, explain the potential dangers of each, and give some practical suggestions on what you as a parent can do to help guide your kids. There will also be a time of Q&A at the end of the class.

You can go to an open house to find out more about a public, private or charter school, but where do you go to find out more about Homeschooling? Exploring Homeschooling (our newest on demand class) aims to answer the real, practical questions many families have as they consider this education option.

If you're a parent considering homeschooling you've probably wondered about things like: How do you choose curriculum? What about socializing your kids? How about sports? Is it expensive? How do I get started? Are there laws you have to follow? Why homeschool anyway? Throughout this class we explore the answers to these questions and more. ✏️

Are you willing to, when things are going wrong, when things are tough, or even when things are great, turn to God and allow Him to provide you with a different path?

For many of us, prayer is hard. We’re not sure how to do it or if it even works, so we simply give up. If you’ve ever wrestled with prayer, we hope you will take "Learning to Pray" On Demand. We’ll cover everything from what prayer is to how to pray and whether it even works.

You were made with a plan and a purpose and equipped with a unique combination of gifts, passions, personality and skills. Yet it sometimes can be difficult to figure out exactly how God wants to use you or what role you might play in His big adventure through the local church. Join us August 10 for Game Time to examine the person God made you to be and how you can make a real difference with your life by joining a Serve Team at Meck.
