- GALLUP
There is also a slight difference between men's views and women's views on extramarital affairs; 8% of men say they are acceptable, compared to 3% of women. And despite the conventional wisdom that young Americans may be more morally libertine than those who are older, 18- to 29-year-olds in the Gallup survey are little different in their views on the moral acceptability of extramarital affairs than are those 30 years of age and up.

 From 500 Pounds to a New and Rewarding Life
-
CNN
Motivated by a unique family intervention, Matt dramatically changed his lifestyle and lost more than 250 pounds. How far would you go to help someone in need?
- What reality did Matt's family force him to see?
- See 1 John: 3:18 and Ephesians 4:15. What model do we have for speaking the truth in love? What is the motivation behind speaking the truth in love?
- When did you last help a family member, neighbor or friend in need? Did you help in both "deed and truth"? How so?
- See Hebrews 3: 13. What ongoing encouragement did Matt's family provide to help him stay on the right track? How can you encourage your family member or friend in need? Why is ongoing encouragement so necessary?
- Who else around you is struggling right now, and could use your support?
Many thanks to Jennifer, a reader from Kirkland, Washington, for submitting this Dialogue idea!

How do you define success for your child? “Graduates from a prestigious college.” “Nabs a high-paying job.” “Settles down with a nice family.” Sounds good. But what if you got it all wrong?
What about greatness? Where does it fit in? “If you aim your children at anything less than greatness, you’ll set them up to miss the whole point of their lives,” says author Tim Kimmel. In Raising Kids for True Greatness, Kimmel turns the definition of success on its head and guides you in preparing your child for a life that will easily eclipse the goals of those who are merely successful.
