Family Discipleship with Christie Thomas


Listen Later

It's my pleasure to introduce Christie Thomas, the creator of Little Shoots and Deep Roots, as she joins Jennifer for an enriching discussion on nurturing and educating our children.

As parents, our deepest wish is cultivating a love for God and joyful righteousness in our children. However, we often feel overwhelmed by distractions, grapple with fears, confront feelings of inadequacy, or simply struggle to find the time. But in Episode 100, you'll discover empowering and actionable insights for embarking on family discipleship with small yet impactful steps, releasing self-imposed pressures, and embracing gradual progress towards daily connection as a family through spiritual practices and scripture memorisation.

In this episode–

  • Fear is not our friend in discipling our children 
  • Creating simple habits that we can sustain every day is the best way to disciple our children 
  • Anchor points are small practices we build out that no matter how intense our schedule or low our emotions, we can consistently do as a family and alone. 
  • Saying a simple prayer over our children each night before bed has big effects on their mental, emotional, and spiritual well being. 
  • You aren't perfect, and there is no perfect way to raise a "godly" family, but as we continue to bring Christ into the centre of it small actions can have God results. 
  • Check out Christie Thomas's free guide "Start Little"
