529: You Don't Have to Disciple Your Kids Alone — Wire Talk with Karen Stubbs

You don't have to carry the weight of discipling your kids by yourself! In this episode, Karen and Emily sit down with children's ministry leader Kendra Fleming to share how partnering with your church can strengthen your family's faith without adding more to your plate. As we head into a new school year, we hope this episode encourages you to lean into the support God has already provided.

Church gives your kids another trusted voice and a place to serve (7:00)
What are some church rhythms that are worth protecting this school year? (11:00)
What does spiritual development look like at the different stages of childhood? (15:50)

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
"Two are better than one...if either of them falls down, one can help the other up."

Discussion Questions:

When you think about discipling your children, do you feel excitement, pressure, fear, or something else? Why?
Has your church encouraged or supported your family in ways you couldn't have done on your own?
What rhythms around church have been most life-giving for your family? Are there any you've allowed to slip?
Is there a children's ministry leader, small group leader, or mentor you could intentionally encourage or build a relationship with this fall?
What practical step could your family take this year to more intentionally partner with your church in helping your kids grow in their faith?
