Summary

The world our kids are growing up in is quite a bit different than the one we grew up in. Skepticism is on the rise, and our culture is becoming increasingly more hostile toward traditional Christian beliefs. With so much information at their fingertips, Christian kids are encountering objections to the Christian worldview at very young ages. How do we talk to our kids about the challenges they are facing at school and on the internet? How can we resist the urge to offer them superficial answers like "Just have faith," and engage them intellectually? National author, blogger, and speaker Natasha Crain gives some incredible advice for Christian parents on today's podcast.

Hey friends, Elisa Childers here. As a Christian parent, what do you do when your kids start

on God Side, 40 Conversations to Help Them Build a Lasting Faith, which by the way was a 2017

ECPA Christian Book Award finalist in the new author category. In fact, it was so wildly

successful that it led to her second book, which just came out last week called Talking

to Your Kids about God, 30 Conversations every Christian parent must have. You can get

So Natasha, thanks so much for coming on the podcast today. Hey, thanks so much for having

1:34.4

me on. It's great to be here with you. I mean, finally, right? We've been talking about

this for a long time. Exactly. And so we've been texting back and forth. What can we talk

1:42.3

about on a podcast? So it was really convenient that your book just came out. So you've been

1:46.2

busy on the campaign trail or promotion trail. What do you call it in the book world?

1:52.0

Well, I guess it can be called anything. We think of it as kind of promoting the book

1:55.4

and getting the word out. But I can see using the word campaign trail to kind of feels
