All in Discipling Children
Slower days and new schedules mean only one thing....Summer is here! How are you going to reach your children's hearts in this season? Here's why it's the perfect time to be more intentional than ever with how you shape them.
There are many days the tantrums are too many to count!! How can we as moms be better prepared to handle our child's emotional outbursts without having a tantrum ourselves?! Maybe it is simpler than you think....
If you have a young child who is curious about God but not sure how to help them understand, this is a great way to teach young children about God!
Family hikes have been our thing this summer. Every weekend we’ve sought out a new trail to hike with our three boys. And can I just tell you, it has been glorious, though it doesn’t always begin that way.
Before we leave for hiking we get the usual pushback:
“Dad, no!”
“I’m so tired from baseball. Can’t we just rest at home?”
“Another hike! What?”
In a recent interview, Sally Lloyd Jones, author of the Jesus Storybook Bible, offered such simple but profound advice on giving hope to children.
Here is a just a portion of what she said:
Children look to us for everything. But in all that we’ve given children, have we forgotten to give them hope? Have we left them in despair -- looking at what they should do but don't? Looking at who they should be but aren’t? How do we give hope to children? When we take the focus off them and put it back on God where it belongs. They don’t need to be told to try harder, believe more, do it better. That just leaves them in despair. We need a Rescuer.
