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.
