Christian Parents' Field Guide - Week 2

Shaping the faith of the next generation can make you feel a little lost. The Christian Parent’s Field Guide is your companion for navigating this unpredictable terrain. From unexpected turns to mountaintop moments, we’ll explore what it looks like to guide your family in faith…whether you have kids at home or young adults starting to make their way in the world. Together, we’ll learn to trust God on the trail ahead—even when the path isn’t clear. Because the faith journey’s wild—but you don’t have to walk it alone.

Over the next four weeks, we are going to talk about biblical wisdom for shaping faith in kids at different ages. We will start with babies and young kids, we will move to older kids and teens, young adults, and then adult children. Today we are moving on to older kids and young teenagers, think roughly 8-16 years old. In this stage, a shift happens primarily because they begin to question things. And how we react to these questions can make a big difference in either pushing them away or helping them to draw close.
