S10E11: Introducing kids to Jesus when I was raised in a non-Christian home (Hope Bonarcher)
12/1/2024
Many of us are trying to disciple our children without the example of our own parents. Perhaps we came to faith through friends in our teens or adulthood, or the faith our parents have now is not one that they had when we were growing up. How do we nurture our kids’ faith when we have no example to follow? How do we help them not to make the same mistakes we made? And what are the basics of family discipleship? Here to help us navigate these issues is writer Hope Bonarcher. Native New-Yorker Hope came to faith in her late 20s, after a life of drugs, alcohol and promiscuity. Her life was radically turned around by Jesus, and within a couple of years she was married with a baby! Hope now lives west of Glasgow with her Scottish husband and their four children, who she is currently homeschooling.

How can dads be a positive presence in their kids’ spiritual lives, even if they don’t live with them, and how can we all support dads to be the best they can be?

S10E9: How can I talk to my child about God when they don't believe in him? (Rachel Turner)
11/18/2024
Many of us feel despondent if our children tell us they don’t believe in God anymore, or they don’t wish to come to church or pursue their faith. We feel like that’s it - there’s no more hope for our kids to find Jesus - and often feel like we’ve failed in some way. Parenting for Faith founder Rachel Turner is our guest today to tell us that that’s not true! There are no dead ends when it comes to discipleship - only new conversations and new waves to surf. Rachel shares ideas to help us at every stage: when our kids have questions they’re afraid to raise, when our teens no longer want to come to church, when our young adult children leave home without a faith of their own, when our older adult children lose the faith they were once excited about.

11/11/2024
Prayer is a key part of our lives as Christians - both individually and corporately. For our families, this might involve helping our kids to chat to God on their own, but also praying together as a family. How can we do this in ways which our kids respond to? Sarah Hogben is one of our Parenting for Faith speaking team and we’re delighted to welcome her to the podcast today. She is a wife and mum to three primary-aged children, and works as a Church Children’s Leader. Sarah’s vast experience of helping children of all ages to pray is hugely helpful to us as we unpack what it might look like within our own families. Sarah and her family live in York.

Surveys suggest that younger generations of Christians are not reading the Bible regularly. It’s a complicated book, full of tricky bits and things which might seem culturally wrong to our 21st century ears. So how can we encourage our kids not only to read it but to grow to love it? Today’s guest, Trillia Newbell, shares helpful thoughts for us all, whether we have babies, teens or anything in between. She is the author of many books for children and adults including God’s Very Good Idea and The Big Bide Welcome. When she isn’t writing, she’s encouraging and supporting other writers as the Acquisitions Director at Moody Publishers. Trillia is married to her best friend, Thern, they reside with their two children near Nashville, Tennessee.
