Summary

Have you ever noticed your child light up as they greet others at church or offer drinks to guests in your home? Those moments could be the first glimpses into your child's natural or spiritual gifts. In this episode, Emily and Laura interview Karen Hodge about nurturing our children's gifts in the context of community. Karen is a pastor's wife and mom of two adult children, who serves as the Coordinator for the PCA Women's Ministry. She's also the R|M Board Chair and has been a faithful encourager of the Risen Motherhood ministry. As parents, we disciple our children with eternity in mind, preparing them to meet Christ. What a privilege to teach them how to use their gifts for God's glory.
