Most Christian parents know that the best way to leave a God-honoring legacy to their family is to nurture their children’s faith . . . but many don’t know where to start This new resource from Jim Burns, founder of HomeWord, will equip parents to start important conversations with their kids–family time with an eternal impact. Faith Conversations for Families makes it easy to invite God into quality family time. Each section outlines an easy-to-follow dialogue, which is flexible for children of different age groups. In addition, suggested activities and exercises make spiritual formation adaptable for kids with varying learning styles. The six family-friendly topics included in this book are:

Who Is Jesus and Why It Matters: Help parents talk with their kids about why His life, death, and resurrection are so important.

What Prayer Is All About: Parents can introduce vibrant conversation with God into their family’s time together.

What It Means to Be Christian: Parents can lead their kids toward a faith commitment and spiritual growth, through open communication and exciting biblical expression.

A Strong Family: Parents can teach, guide, and strengthen healthy bonds within the family.

Loving and Serving Others: Parents can talk with their children about servant leadership and self-sacrifice and be challenged to serve in and outside of their home.

Building Morals and Values: Parents can help their kids discern and navigate cultural influences that run contrary to a biblical worldview.

In the heart of every Christian parent is a desire to help their children grow spiritually. Faith Conversations for Families helps parents make that desire a beautiful reality.
