Summary

Today, we have Matt Markins on the show. Matt is the president and CEO of Awana. Some of you may have grown up in Awana, and others have never heard of it; Awana is a child discipleship and formation program that focuses on helping parents thrive in the daily mundane formational process with their children. In this episode, we talk about the three pillars of discipleship, how to work these into our families, a vision for your home, a culture of transparency, how parenting is both mundane and miraculous, and how the church community can shape a child's faith journey, to name a few. Enjoy!
