My name is Alice. Rooted was an idea that some friends and I had several years ago. This blog is a work in progress. Daily I am being challenged in my faith, yet strive to please the One who called me. I seek to stay rooted and well-watered in the One who is, who was and who is to come.
The purpose of the Rooted blog was and is to encourage parents, grandparents and caregivers who understand the great responsibility we have for the spiritual instruction of children. It is my hope that the words in this blog will encourage you to desire a closer walk with Christ and inspire you as you seek to pass the baton of faith on to your own children, grandchildren and to those people, big and small, God puts in your path. As a mother and a worker in Parent and Family Ministry, I listen and write what God lays on my heart. ROOTed stands for:
