Show Your Children What Life Is All About

What's the difference between being a shepherd, and being a good shepherd? And how does Jesus "level up" our parenting game? This week we throwback to an old segment, with a Scripture du Jour, drawing insight from Jesus' words in John 10. We talk about the challenge of shepherding different kids without juggling or splitting our focus, and the difficulty of adapting to new challenges as our kids — and the world — keep changing! The conversation starts with some tough questions — like "are you comfortable telling your kids to walk like you?" — and never gets easier. But we hope that you're blessed by the journey as we try to tackle them head on! Check out the study guide for this conversation (session 6 of Training Wheels) and watch for the complete booklet this Spring.

The Big Idea: Your life speaks volumes to those following behind you.

This Week's Challenge: Choose an activity to do with your child that Christ did with his disciples.
