I’m thankful for my people

I’m thankful for the people of God throughout time and space: from patriarchs of old to the newest member of the covenant baptized last Sunday. 

I’m thankful for fellow Americans and patriots: from the Founders to Donald Trump.

I’m thankful for my local church and denomination: I’m thankful for the joy of observing a third and fourth generation of young saints as they embrace the faith of their fathers, and to observe saints who have run their race triumphantly entering glory. I’m thankful for our elders and pastors, gospel men like Doug Wilson, Joshua Appel, and our denomination’s PM Uri Brito. 

I’m thankful for my fellow Laborers in Classical Christian Education: it is such a great privilege to be involved in the renewal of classical Christian education. And especially those authors and writers who have entrusted to me their life’s work by publishing with Roman Roads Press, or teaching with Kepler Education.

I’m thankful for my family: in particular the faithfulness and sacrifice of my father Francis Foucachon, the gracious service and hospitality of my mother Donna, the embodiment of beauty and virtue of my wife Lydia, the friendship and co-laboring of my brother David, of my sisters, and their spouses, and for the joy of having a home full of sons and daughters I delight in, and themselves having a small army of cousins who are their friends and playmates. 

God has been so generous and good to me by giving me these people. All glory to God the Father, all honor to his Son Jesus Christ, and all praise to the Holy Spirit.

Happy Thanksgiving.
