Parenting & Children
Better Together

September 22, 2019 • Dr. Carlo Serrano • Proverbs 20:7, Matthew 7:3–5, Titus 2:6–8
Integrity. It’s something we all want our kids to have. But how do we help them find it in a world full of compromises? The answer might surprise you. We’ll look at one essential key to building integrity in your child and in your home that could change everything.
Rhythms and Relationships
September 15, 2019 • Chris Edmondson • Deuteronomy 6:6–9, 1 Samuel 16:5–13
Statistics say that the three biggest factors in building a faith that lasts in the life of a child are the spiritual investment of a parent, the outside voices of other adults, and the opportunity for that child to find a personal mission. That’s why having a family rhythm of faith and having outside voices speaking into your family are so important. That’s why a partnership with a church is so important for every family.
Center of My Universe
September 8, 2019 • Chris Edmondson • Psalm 90:12, Philippians 2:3–5
Somewhere along the line, we picked up the idea that kids are supposed to be the focus of our lives. The problem with that line of thinking is that it causes problems for everyone, including kids. Could child-centered parenting produce self-centered children?
