✋ 5 Simple Ways to Make Faith Conversations Flow

1. 
   

   Use What’s Already Happening
   
   Tie God's truth into what you're seeing, hearing, or experiencing—like a rainbow or a movie scene.

   
   


2. 
   

   Ask Open-Ended Questions
   
   Spark reflection and dialogue by asking, “What do you think Jesus would do here?”

   
   


3. 
   

   Share Your Own Journey
   
   Be real about how you trust God—even in worry, sadness, or uncertainty.

   
   


4. 
   

   Listen More Than You Speak
   
   Sometimes the best discipleship happens when you create space for your child to process.

   
   


5. 
   

   Tie Faith to Rhythms
   
   Add Scripture to your family’s everyday routines—bedtime, mealtime, car rides.

   
   

📖 Colossians 3:17 reminds us: “Whatever you do… do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus.”

💛 Encouragement for Moms

You don’t have to have all the right words. You don’t need a theology degree. You just need a heart that’s willing and present.

God multiplies our small steps of obedience—even when the conversation is messy or interrupted by spilled juice and toddler questions.
