What can we do as parents to strengthen our kids spiritually before they leave the home? On this week’s episode of Embracing Your Season, Paige Clingenpeel welcomes back international speaker, author, and Christian apologist, Alex McFarland. Together, Paige and Alex discuss who has the most influence on your kids as they grow, the importance of intentional family time (including meals together whenever possible), confronting and adjusting our priorities, and how prioritizing spiritual growth in your marriage has a lasting impact on your kids as they mature.
Paige’s Takeaways
- Prioritize your marriage
- Engage in spiritual practices with your spouse: Praying, discussing the sermon you heard at church together, devotions - these are lifegiving practices for your marriage AND a model that your children learn from.
- Set a new standard of priorities in your family
- Don’t allow the world to dictate your schedule!
- Even if you can’t do family meals as often as you’d like, set aside time to connect with each of your kids.
- Allow for conversation and dialogues with your kids about their spiritual walk
- Make sure your kids know that they are allowed to ask questions about who God is, and what the validity and historical context are for stories in the Bible (and if you don’t know the answer - that’s even better! Find them together!)
