Child-Like Faith

Mark 10: 13-16
Have you ever felt like you were too busy or too important to stop and bless someone? In Mark 10, we see the disciples making this mistake when they try to keep children away from Jesus.

As parents, we have a crucial role in shaping our children's faith. Our example at home speaks louder than any rule or expectation. We must show our need for Jesus, bring our kids to Him through prayer and community, and engage in daily conversations about Him.
