3. “A Passion for My Child's Faith

In this resource, you’ll dive into child development concepts as you consider how kids your child’s age best engage with God and biblical truth. You’ll join a child educator in conversation about how faith can be woven into family time and fun play. You’ll be challenged to help kids put their budding faith into action through age-appropriate service and volunteer experiences.

4. “Equipping Your Kids to Make Good Choices

Our kids will never make all the right decisions, and we shouldn’t expect them to. They are sinners (just like us!), after all, and they have their own journey of conviction, forgiveness, and grace to walk. But thankfully God has given us the privilege of influencing our children as they journey along the road of life, and this resource will help along the way.

5. “Discipline with Confidence

Do you second-guess yourself at every turn when it comes to how and when to discipline your child? Many parents feel inadequate and that they've run out of effective discipline tools.
