Summary

I am so happy to be back with another monthly podcast covering highlights from my book, Raising Amazing: Bringing up Kids Who Love God, Like Their Family, and Do the Dishes Without Being Asked! Today we get to cover Chapter Four: The Most Important Thing. This is all about making faith your highest priority. While every chapter of this book is important, I believe this topic truly is…the most important. The way I see it, if our kids grow up to love God and follow His ways, we have little else to be concerned about. They will then have the wisdom and resources to make good choices, find the support they need, and live amazing lives. In this chapter we talk about faith from the early years through the teenage years…the spiritual disciplines in childhood that research has shown correlate with a life-long faith…and much more. I hope this episode encourages and inspires you!Find a free download with the steps to lead your child into a relationship with God in show notes! www.monicaswanson.com/Raising-Amazing-4Podcast page (for all episodes) www.monicaswanson.com/podcastPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
