Most Christian parents know that the best way to leave a God-honoring legacy to their family is to nurture their children's faith . . . but many don't know where to start! This new resource from Jim Burns, founder of HomeWord, will equip parents to start important conversations with their kids--family time with an eternal impact. Faith Conversations for Families makes it easy to invite God into quality family time. Each section outlines an easy-to-follow dialogue, which is flexible for children of different age groups. In addition, suggested activities and exercises make spiritual formation adaptable for kids with varying learning styles. The six family-friendly topics included in this book are:
Who Is Jesus and Why It Matters: Help parents talk with their kids about why His life, death, and resurrection are so important.
What Prayer Is All About: Parents can introduce vibrant conversation with God into their family's time together.
What It Means to Be Christian: Parents can lead their kids toward a faith commitment and spiritual growth, through open communication and exciting biblical expression.
A Strong Family: Parents can teach, guide, and strengthen healthy bonds within the family.
Loving and Serving Others: Parents can talk with their children about servant leadership and self-sacrifice and be challenged to serve in and outside of their home.
Building Morals and Values: Parents can help their kids discern and navigate cultural influences that run contrary to a biblical worldview.
In the heart of every Christian parent is a desire to help their children grow spiritually. Faith Conversations for Families helps parents make that desire a beautiful reality.
