Hugs

January 27, 2025
By Dr. Susan DeMoss

In 2024, Forbes magazine (Comaford, 2024) published an article on the importance of hugs. They listed four reasons why humans need hugs:

  1. Hugs strengthen our immune system. 
  2. Hugs make us feel safe.
  3. Hugs increase our sense of belonging.
  4. Hugs make us feel seen.
 

In Scripture, we find that Jesus often not only saw and met the need but also used touch. There is something about a mother’s touch. Last Wednesday, the elementary school hosted Mother’s Chapel. Throughout the auditorium, mothers came to sit with their children. There were also lots of hugs! CHA is blessed with strong families and parent support. We are grateful to parents committed to training their children in truth by investing in CHA’s distinct education and equipping them in the home and church.
