So much of what our children learn in their most formative years comes from who they observe around them.  Especially their parents!  In this episode, we explore different ways to engage your child in prayer.  Listen in as we chat about making prayer a priority for our children by making it a priority for ourselves.  

Our kids pick up on all kinds of clues from us - constantly.  From very little on, they mimic our actions and our attitudes.  In this episode, Jan, Leslie, and Jen talk about our own attitude on Sunday mornings as we head to church and how that transfers to our kids - for better or worse.

Join us as we talk about what forgiveness is, and what it is not, and how to help our kids to forgive as God forgives.
