Parents have profound influence in helping children connect to God's plan through modeling authentic faith and empowering kids to develop their own relationship with their Creator. Your life paints the canvas on which your child's story begins—a responsibility that extends far beyond church attendance or Bible knowledge.
• Be a model of life lived in Christ—children watch what you do more than what you say
• Spend time with God to tune your ears to His voice, just as Jesus rose early to pray
• Celebrate when your children begin hearing from God themselves
• Remember Jesus' words that "the Father himself loves you"—teach kids this direct access
• Discipline with gentleness to avoid exasperating your children
• Ask more questions than you give answers to empower critical thinking
• Guide children through decisions rather than making all choices for them
• Bless your children with affirming words and demonstrate love consistently
• Understand that daughters especially need to hear they are beautiful and worthy of love
• Remember that God delights over you and dances over you with joy—model this for your children
