Do you have a consistent habit of spending time with God? It can be so hard to do with kids at home. Yet, Deuteronomy 6:5-7 shows us that discipling our children starts with us loving God.

It is from that love of God that our teaching, discipling, and nurturing the faith of our children flows. Otherwise, you will be trying to work for God instead of with him. This leads to burnout and your kids seeing through the inauthenticity.

Here are 3 tips to help Christian mamas to spend time with Jesus and enjoy it!

You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

In this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, we dive into the important distinction between teaching kids Biblical facts and nurturing their faith. Through my experience as a mother, children's minister, and seminary graduate, I explore how simple questions, like the number of loaves and fishes, might build knowledge but not necessarily foster a deep, personal relationship with God. I share insights from language learning and ministry to illustrate how we can move beyond memorization to encourage our children to truly engage with and wonder about Bible stories. Join me as I discuss how to inspire your kids to grow in their faith through curiosity and relationships, and make faith a playful, heartfelt journey.

You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!
