One of the unexpected results of the pandemic has been the expansion of online-church opportunities.

A member of our Facebook community asked, “What about boys crying?” There have been people who said it’s unmanly to cry, and discouraged or even disciplined their sons for crying – ever.

Some things are unquestionable, life-changing moments – an unexpected death in the family, a natural disaster, a major accident. But what about things which just show up and disrupt everything?

Is this “homeschooling” or is it “school-at-home”? Is there a difference?
