Summer is here, the kids are home, the schedule has loosened and it’s a great time to have some reading time for you and your kids. This summer, we're challenging you to invest some of that reading not only with beach reads you'll forget by August, but with books that will genuinely reshape how you parent. Check out this week’s blog post for four great suggestions.

If you’re looking for great books that will encourage, challenge, and equip you as a parent, here are four powerful reads to add to your summer list. Each one speaks to the realities parents are facing today from anxiety and technology to spiritual habits and healthy relationships. The Anxious...

In honor of celebrating Mother’s Day recently, here is a Mother’s Prayer:

HEAVENLY FATHER, I praise and thank you for the privilege of coming before You humbly and interceding on behalf of my children. Keep their hearts tender and sensitive to Your voice. Give them a love for Your Word and willing hearts to obey it. Help them to desire to walk before You in ri...

Every kid will see bullying happen! And when they witness bullying, many kids feel unsure about what to do. Should I step in? What if I make it worse? What if I become a target too? Read more in this week's blog.

As parents, one of our deepest hopes is that our children grow into people of both kindness and courage. God wants this for our kids as well. These moments are more than social and relational challenges. They’re opportunities to live out faith in real, meaningful ways. Here are some tips on ho...

It’s a question no parent really wants to ask out loud: Could my child be the one doing the bullying? As Christian parents, God has called to raise our children in the instruction of the Lord. That means being willing to look honestly at their hearts, even when it’s uncomfortable for us and them.

Most of us picture a “bully” as an obviously mean, aggressive kid. You know, the kind who intimidates others and knows exactly what they’re doing. But the reality is much more complicated…and much more common. A fascinating survey of 45,000 kids by Ditch the Label found that...

Easter is a celebration of the most important moment in our faith: the resurrection of Jesus. In the middle of egg hunts, candy, and busy schedules, meaningful traditions can help bring our families back to what truly matters. Check out how and why in this week's blog post.

We know what you are thinking…”I can’t add one more thing to my to-do list.” But here’s the truth: creating Easter traditions isn’t about adding more to your to-do list but it is about being intentional with the moments you already have. Here are just some reason...

Holy Week reminds us of Jesus’ final days - His welcome into Jerusalem, His sacrifice on the cross, and His victory over death. For parents, it can sometimes feel difficult to explain these big, emotional moments to children in a way they can truly understand. We hope this will give you simple ways to talk through the events of Holy Week with your kids while helping them see the most important truth of all: Jesus loves them, gave His life for them, and is alive today.

Holy Week is one of the most important weeks in the Christian faith. It tells the story of Jesus’ final days — His welcome into Jerusalem, His death on the cross, and His resurrection. For adults, these moments carry deep meaning. For children, however, the story can sometimes feel confu...

You’ve probably heard it from parents a little further down the road: “Enjoy it – it goes by fast.” And while you’re trying to savor every moment, the truth is the years seem to speed by with every birthday and Christmas that arrives sooner than expected. In last week’s blog post, we explored having a mindset of “begin with the end in mind.” We encourage you to create a God-centered vision for your family that can help guide your days, focus your values, and ensure the life you’re building together points your children toward what matters most.

One of the most common phrases you may hear from older parents and empty nesters is “Enjoy it – it goes by fast!”. And you are trying to enjoy it but inevitably every birthday and Christmas seems to feel like it's sneaking up on you. Time is the issue here, so why not be inte...

In a world that constantly pulls us toward self-focus, Jesus invites us into a different way of living: one where loving Him and loving others are beautifully intertwined. What if every small act of generosity was actually an act of worship? And what if inviting our kids into that story helped them see Jesus more clearly? Meck's Hygiene Drive is a great way to do that!

If you’ve spent any time in church, you’ve likely heard that serving matters. But why? Certainly, it is a way that we can love others well, that we join into community as we offer our time and effort as a way to build relationships around us. But those are happy by-products o...

As parents, one of the sweetest gifts we can give our kids is helping them learn how to talk to God. But if we’re honest, prayer can feel a little abstract to children. They may wonder “What do I say? Am I doing it right?” In this week’s blog we give you a simple way to teach your kids how to pray.

One simple way to explain prayer to kids is this: Prayer is like sending a letter to God. When we write a letter we greet the person and share what’s on our hearts. Sometimes we ask for help and sometimes we say we’re sorry. Jesus knew we would need help knowing what to put in our &ldquo...

What if a powerful parenting strategy isn’t about better discipline, clearer rules, or even more patience, but about standing shoulder to shoulder? Kids are experts at testing boundaries and occasionally playing mom and dad against each other. In this week’s blog post, we discuss one simple shift that can change everything.

What is the most important parenting advice you have ever received? Lead with love. Clearly communicate expectations. If you need to have a serious talk, just open a bag of chips loudly—they’ll magically appear. All solid advice. But there’s one principle that often gets overl...
