Celebrate Valentine’s Day with the real story
Read the Story of Valentine’s Day To Your Family
Do you know the real story behind Valentine’s Day? In the United States and elsewhere, celebrating Valentine’s Day is an accepted practice, but do you know why we celebrate it? Is it just a sweet holiday and excuse to give cards, go out, or buy candy or flowers? Let me encourage you to read about the man behind Valentine’s Day. Also, scroll down for a list of my posts (because of Titus 2) to encourage and help you prioritize your family and teach you how to love your husband and children better and more consistently according to God’s Word.

The Story of St. Valentine: More Than Cards and Candied Hearts
Read this Amazon Review:
“As a retired elementary school librarian of 20 years, I was looking for a book with a Christian perspective on Valentine’s Day for my grandchildren–ages 8, 6, 5 and 3. This was perfect! Large colorful illustrations, right amount of text, easy-to-understand vocabulary and the essential facts of this brave & loving man who chose to be faithful to his God. I thought it was more child friendly than Robert Sabuda’s Saint Valentine.”
Valentine’s Day and the story of St. Valentine reminds us of the subject of love, so I thought I’d encourage you in your love towards your husband and children, since God gives older women instruction in Titus 2:4: “That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children.”
