Listen today as Dr. Sean McDowell shares (among other topics) that if you want to pass on your faith to your kids, the effective way to do that and data shows, you have to: 
1. Model your faith to your kids. If you don’t model it, it doesn’t matter what you say.  
2. Build close, warm, intimate relationship with your kids. 
3. Engage them in spiritual, natural conversations, not lectures.  
Always look for ways to ask questions and engage them. Affirm that asking questions are great and welcome in the Christian fold.
