Guerrilla Parenting?

Hmmm... some thoughts from one of my favorite 'blog moms' who has a 12 children...

No doubt about it, in this country, children are considered a financial liability. Still, I wonder if money is the main issue for most who choose to limit their families. For every “How can you afford it?” I hear a dozen comments on the emotional burden and parents’ presumed inadequacies: “I don’t know how you do it; two are enough to drive me crazy.” “We’ve got all we can handle (shudder).

And so I wonder, what would the church look like today if we were influenced less by the culture which sees children as invaders – who will rob us of our freedom, status, beauty, wealth, and sanity – and influenced more by Scripture, which steadfastly affirms children as God’s reward?
Psalm 127 goes on to say:

Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
Are sons born in ones youth.
Blessed is the man
Whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
When they contend with their enemies in the gate.

**And here's a thought I(sarah) have had for years, but never seen voiced/written quite like this...

Perhaps the Body of Christ should recognize that having many children – if parents work to keep their arrows sharp and their aim true – may be the most revolutionary course Christians in a post-Christian world may take. What if every Christian family had just one more than they thought they could handle?
