Purpose of Gen Now Parents

We are excited to provide these tools to you all as we desire to partner with you in the discipleship of your students. The podcast explains what the future podcasts will look like. The attached document provides the reason we feel this is important, as well as some statistics that back up our motives. We pray that you lean into these resources as you have the blessing of being able to grow closer to Christ with your students. Listen above.

Episode 1 - What is Prayer?

Join us as we overview the last three lessons of Prayer; What is Prayer, Why do we Pray, and How do we pray. As a part of our new series, "Its ok to not be ok", prayer is the foundation of being able to come to the Father. Therefore, we want to help teach your students the importance of prayer and how to pray. In the document provided, you will find some discussion questions and two resources available to you to walk through with your students.

Episode 2 - Suffering with Christ

October 13, 2022

Continuing in our study, "It's ok to not be ok", we learned how our suffering has a purpose in Christ. It is inevitable that we are going to meet trials of various kinds (James 1:2-4). However, we know that Christ is with us to provide comfort and joy through the suffering that we encounter. Romans 8 speaks of our suffering in light of Christ and the future glory that Christ is preparing for all of creation. Therefore, we know that God loves us. The love that we are constantly yearning for is found through Christ. Therefore, I want to encourage you parents to create a safe space for your students to be vulnerable and to learn to navigate through the hardships in light of the Hope that Christ provides us.

Episode 3 - Lamenting vs. Complaining

As we begin to cap off our series, "It's ok to not be ok", we are evaluating what it means to lament. Often, we feel like we can't be vulnerable because we are called to walk through this life not grumbling or complaining. However, God calls us to lament through our sufferings. We cannot walk through this life acting like everything is ok because we live in a sinful world where there will always be suffering, hurt, and pain. Through Lamenting, we can come to Christ as He is our refuge in the midst of the storms, and be honest with Him as to where we are at with our emotions. Therefore, join us as we evaluate the healthy ways in which we can become lamenters, rather than complainers.

Episode 4 - "Who's Your One?" Kickoff

We have challenged your students to pray for one person who is lost on a daily basis. Not only to pray specifically for them, but to share the Gospel with them as well. This podcast goes through the challenge and how you can walk alongside them in this challenge.

Episode 5 - "What is a Disciple?"

Over the next two weeks, we are breaking down what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. In the culture that we live in today, we often get caught in a trap over our own passions and own desires. However, God is calling us to deny ourselves and follow Him. What are we doing as a family to place Christ at the forefront of our lives?

Episode 6 - Living as a Holy People

In 1 Peter, Peter desires his readers to understand that we are to live with the ultimate hope of Christ Jesus. We are called to living Holy, as the one who has called us is holy. We are being built up as a holy temple for Christ as we are called to proclaim the excellencies of Him. He has brought us into the light and we are called to reflect that light and His love. We are called to spread the Gospel to all the nations. What is the best way to spread the Gospel? Through the ways in which we live and reflect his love. Actions speak much louder than words.
