Description

“God is so much bigger than our parenting. He’s the perfect parent, even when we’re not.”


How do we pass our faith on to our kids without forcing it—or tying our worth to whether or not they embrace it? In this conversation, Carol, Kelly and Tricia share their real-life stories about parenting teens, releasing control, and trusting God with the next generation. From car rides to dinner tables, memes to worship moments, the girls talk honestly about what it looks like to normalize faith in everyday life.


This one’s for every mom who’s ever wondered, “Am I doing enough?” Take a deep breath, friend—God is bigger than our parenting wins and fails, and He loves our kids even more than we do.


3 Takeaways




  1. Normalize faith by weaving it into everyday conversations instead of reserving it for “formal” moments.




  2. Be present and take an interest in your child’s world—that’s often where authentic faith conversations begin.




  3. Release the guilt and remember: God is the perfect parent, and He’s the one ultimately shaping your child’s heart.




This week, look for one everyday moment to naturally talk about your faith with your kids—whether it’s a car ride, mealtime, or even a quick text. Normalize Jesus in the ordinary.
