This episode is a little bit different! Our kids are growing up in a media-saturated world, but as Christian parents, however, we want to saturate their world with JESUS.

Join me for part 10 of our How To Raise Jesus Kids series, where I talk you through so many great faith-based media options for your kids. By saturating our children’s world with Jesus, we are laying their foundation upon a biblical worldview and correct view of God. I know we won’t regret this!
