And this is why when we're raising up generations, we have to be so careful.

We don't want to stop the talking. We want to redirect the talking, right? We don't want to stop all the movement. Sit down. Sit down. You're so distracting. We want to redirect it. We don't want to stop the kid who's humming and toe tapping and bebopping with the pencils. We want to redirect all that energy to something that's healthy. Because if we don't, we're going to steal a gift that God wired into them or knit into them at conception.

Well, hey, friends, so glad you've tuned in to the Elisa Childers podcast today.

I'm Alisa Childers.

And what we do here is try to equip Christians to identify the core beliefs of historic

Christianity, discern its counterfeits, and proclaim the gospel with clarity, kindness,

and truth.

And today's episode is no exception.

I wanted to have this

guest on for quite a while. I met her a few years ago at a Colson Center event. In fact,

it was the big yearly conference, the Wilberforce weekend. And I loved her speech. And I think

she meets a need that is really, really necessary in today's climate. First, I want to let you know that

today's episode is brought to you by Sparrow Natural Goods. That is a wonderful Christian-owned

cosmetics, body care company. Everything is natural. I love their soopes. They're so luxurious.

We're going to get to our episode with Dr. Kathy Cook in just a moment.

But first I want to tell you about an upcoming conference that I am so excited about.

So last September, thousands of women from all across the

country descended upon Dallas, Texas to join Ali Beth Stuckey in her conference called Share the

Aeros. I was there. Francesca Battistelli led worship. We had Rosaria Butterfield, many others,

and she's doing it again. It was such a success. So many of you responded that it was so meaningful. I've met many of you, even when I travel, that were at Share of the Arrows and can't wait for next year. It's going to be so awesome. It's going to be on October 11th in Dallas. And this year, we're going to be joined by Ginger, Dugger of Willow, Abby Halberstadt, who's been on this podcast before, Hillary Ferrer from Mama Bear Apologetics. I'm so excited about that one. And Francesca Battistelli is going to lead worship again. And also Katie Faust is going to be there. I love Katie Faust. She's been on this podcast. You've got to listen to that episode. This conference is just going to be amazing. There's going to be a parenting panel.
