How do we teach our kids and teenagers about what other religions believe? In this mini-episode, Ann Dunagan shares an introduction about Tribal Religions beliefs (also known as "Animism"), from a Christian mission-minded worldview.     Here is "Highlights of World Religions" from  Teaching With God's Heart for the World, Volume 2, (by Ann Dunagan) which includes several pages about understanding Tribal/Animism and explaining this religious belief to young people,from a Christian mission-minded perspective. Included are basic beliefs, how to pray for people from remote tribal religions, and encouraging spiritual caution and prayer when learning about ancient religions -- introduced through popular family movies (such as Pocahontas, Moana, Avatar, or The Lion King), or in historical displays honoring ancient cultures and native religious practices.   Recommended mission books:  Eternity in their Hearts by Don Richardson Peace Child, by Don Richardson Bruchko, by Bruce Olsen

In today's episode, Ann Dunagan introduces two new mentoring tools, for personal and group discipleship and mobilization with Mission-Minded Women:  First is My Mission-Minded Happy Planner, a fun whimsically illustrated life-planning guide and prayer journal, designed to help Christian women and teenage girls to live every day for the glory of God, in every area of ife, spirit, soul, and body. The Happy Planner is available in either a 40-Day or 90-Day version, and in both softcover and hardcover editions (on Amazon).  Secondly, The Mission-Minded HappyApp (or simply "HappyApp") is a life-planning tool for personal growth, designed to coordinate with the Happy Planner. The HappyApp includes daily encouragement, personal development training (for every area of our life), goal-setting tools and tracking, and a community feature.  You can get My Mission-Minded Happy Planner on Amazon for as little as $4.99 (for the 40-Day softcover version -- our heart for this version is for small groups or mentoring), up to $14.99 for the 90-Day hardcover version. It is also available in many other countries, including Europe, Australia, Canada, Mexico, and various countries in South America. Currently, we are working to translate the Happy Planner into seven other languages, coming, Lord willing, next year.
