If you are a Christian parent who wants to bring joy to your family's faith and model the abundant life, I think one book series is a must-read: The Chronicles of Narnia. There is so much richness and imagination that will help your family talk about and grow in faith. Let’s look at how we can use each book to wonder and connect with our children.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

Many Christian mothers struggle with their reactions to their children's misbehavior, often responding with anger, frustration, or harsh discipline. This inconsistency between their faith values and parenting practices can lead to guilt, damaged relationships, ineffective discipline, and impact their child's faith. The podcast addresses how moms can align their responses to misbehavior with their Christian beliefs, focusing on self-regulation, gentleness, and modeling Christ's love, even in challenging moments. It explores the biblical perspective on discipline and offers practical strategies for moms to cultivate a more grace-filled, spiritually-grounded approach to guiding their children's behavior.

I recently read a statistic that said 92% of Christian parents believe they are responsible for nurturing their children’s faith, but only 33% feel prepared to do so.
Christie Thomas’s new book, Little Habits, Big Faith is a great resource for growing in confidence in your ability to disciple your child. Learn more about this book and check out the links below to grab it from Amazon.
Christie’s Bio:
After getting a BSc in Biology, Christie spent her entire adult working life in Children's Ministries until, a few years ago, God called her home to educate her three boys and to run Little Shoots, Deep Roots. She's written several books to help your kids know and love God, including Quinn's Promise Rock, and Fruit Full, a devotional on the fruit of the Spirit.

Welcome back to another episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting with your host, Joy Wendling. Today, we're diving into the often misunderstood role of play in discipline. Many parents perceive play as inappropriate during moments of misbehavior or power struggles. But what if there's a better way? Drawing insights from Lawrence Cohen's "Playful Parenting" and Jim and Lynn Jackson's "Discipline That Connects With Your Child's Heart," Joy explores how playful discipline can transform power struggles into opportunities for connection and growth. Discover why play is not a reward but a powerful tool to reinforce love, understanding, and the fruit of the Spirit in your parenting journey. Let's redefine discipline together and see how you can be equipped to handle those challenging moments with grace and playfulness.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

Hey, in this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, I delve into the importance of helping kids own their faith in Jesus. Drawing from my experiences as a mom and a former children's minister, I share insights on guiding kids to know Jesus as the Good Shepherd, the abundant life-giver, and the embodiment of amazing grace. I highlight the role of parents in nurturing their children's spiritual growth through love, teaching, and play. My aim is to encourage and equip parents to raise kids who embody their faith in their everyday lives.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

In the sermon on the mount, Jesus says, “Blessed are the peacemakers.” What is a peacemaker? Is peacekeeping the same thing? In this episode we talk about how we can make peace in our homes and use the Connected Families’ peace process to raise our kids to make peace and value restoration in relationships.

Control, agency, and discipleship. Let’s chat about how to cultivate curious and committed kids for Christ! In this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, we dive into the intriguing concept of agency in parenting and discipleship. Join me, Joy Wendling, as I explore the significance of giving children control and ownership over their faith, and how it can foster curiosity and commitment to Christ. I challenge parents to consider the level of control they exert over their children's spiritual journey and offer insights into guiding children without imposing rigid control. I invite you to join the conversation and share your thoughts on this crucial aspect of parenting. Can't wait to hear from you!
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

In this episode, I chat with Glenys Nellist, children’s author, about observing Lent with children and her newest book Twas the Season of Lent. This is a 40-day devotional for families to use during the Lenten season in preparation for Easter. I love how we discuss the capability of children to handle hard things and trusting parents to know their children best.
Bio:
Glenys Nellist was born and raised in a little village in northern England. The author of multiple award-winning children's books, including the bestselling 'Twas the Evening of Christmas, The Wonder That is You, and five popular series: Love Letters from God, Snuggle Time, 'Twas, Good News and Little Mole, her writing reflects a deep passion for helping children discover joy and hope in the world. Glenys lives in Michigan with her husband, David.

Until just a few days before the end of the year, I was unsettled in my reading plan for 2024. I loved my reading rhythm I had developed over the past couple of years, but it didn’t feel right. God then called my to read the entire Bible in 30 days. Not to try to learn everything, understand everything, but to simply be flooded with his Word for hours each day. In this episode, hear more about soaking in God’s Word, as well as what Psalm stuck out to me as a mama.

As we approach Thanksgiving, it's the perfect time to discuss this important virtue. Join me, Joy Wendling, as I share some realistic expectations for teaching gratitude to our little ones and offer practical tips on how to nurture this quality in them. From modeling gratitude to helping children understand the concept through relationships and concrete thinking, we'll explore different strategies that can make a big impact. Plus, I'll reveal playful and fun ways to practice gratitude as a family, so get ready to dance, sing, and make a super long gratitude list together! Don't stress if your kids don't fully grasp it yet; it's a gradual journey. So, let's gather around and celebrate the blessings in our lives on this special Thanksgiving week episode. Join me on Playfully Faithful Parenting, where we navigate the joys and challenges of raising faithful and grateful children.

Today, Joy dives into the topic of why she gave up her quiet time and how it has transformed her approach to motherhood. In this episode, Joy addresses the pressure that Christian moms often feel to be perfect and do everything perfectly. She emphasizes that even if we could parent perfectly, it doesn't guarantee that our kids will turn out perfectly. Joy encourages moms to not constantly feel the weight of the world on their shoulders, but instead to find joy and fulfillment in their role as mothers. She shares her perspective on quiet time and challenges the notion that it has to look a certain way for every mom. Joy discusses her own personal experiences and the freedom she found in giving God all 24 hours of her day, rather than just a specific hour. She shares practical ways she spends time with God and emphasizes the importance of finding a rhythm that works for each individual mom. If you're a mom seeking a fresh perspective on quiet time and how to connect with God in the midst of motherhood, this episode is for you. Tune in to gain insights and be inspired to experience the joy of motherhood to the fullest.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

On this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, host Joy Wendling dives into the world of block play and how it intertwines with faith. Joy explores how block play evolves as children grow older and how it can be integrated with faith-based teachings and how understanding child development is also crucial in nurturing children's faith and creating appropriate expectations. Drawing inspiration from Luke 2:52, where Jesus grew in wisdom, stature, favor with God and man, Joy discusses the different stages of block play and offers guidance on incorporating faith into everyday activities. By honoring God's design for block play, parents can show their children what unconditional love looks like and deepen their faith.

On this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, we explore the concept of loose parts play and its intersection with faith. Joy highlights how loose parts can help children learn to take risks in a safe and creative environment. We delve into the benefits of loose parts beyond just creativity, discussing how they can foster problem-solving skills and enhance concentration. The importance of combining Bible stories with loose parts play is emphasized, as it can spark imagination and storytelling. We also draw parallels between the skills showcased in artistic crafts, such as engraving and designing, and the potential for children to tap into their own creative abilities. Throughout the episode, we are reminded of the limitless potential and opportunities for play that loose parts offer, and how they can enhance children's physical, cognitive, spiritual, and social/emotional growth. Join us as we explore the joyful and faith-filled world of loose parts play.

Could your kids answer WWBD, what would Bluey do? What about WWJD? On this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, I share insights on storytelling and character development when teaching kids about Jesus. I discuss the importance of fully developing Jesus as a character and setting the scene properly to help kids imagine the story. I encourage parents to engage in playful storytelling with their kids and offer resources for Discipline as Discipleship with the Connected Families coaching package. Listen in as I share my passion for developing a positive relationship between kids and Jesus and helping you enjoy motherhood.

On this episode of Playfully Faithful Parenting, I dive into the story of the priest, prophet, and judge Samuel from 1 Samuel 1-3. First I start with prayer, then I emphasize the opportunity parents have to show their children what it looks like to walk with God in all situations and model it for them. I discuss the importance of giving space for the Holy Spirit to work in people's lives and trusting in God's capabilities to reach and communicate with kids and teens.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

I fully believe that God wants you to enjoy being a mom. It is a gift and a blessing. When we do it with Him, instead of for Him, we are able to model God’s love for our children while experiencing joy in our motherhood. Then, our children will be able to know that Jesus didn’t just die for them to have eternal life in heaven, but abundant life here and now with Him.
In this episode, we look at the 4 messages of the Connected Families Framework and how we can use play to help our children experience and know:
- Child, you are safe.
- Child, you are loved.
- Child, you are called and capable.
- Child, you are responsible.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

As parents, we have the incredible responsibility of teaching our children about God. It's one of the most important things we can do for them. But it's not always easy. We may not know where to start or how to make it interesting for our kids.
In this episode, we'll discuss the importance of teaching your kids who God is and what He has done. We'll look at the story of Judges 2 to see how God's people forgot Him and suffered the consequences. And, we will reflect on our own lives to remember stories of what God has done for us so we can share it with our children.
Love:
Reflect on what God has done for you: today, this past week, the last month, last year, and each decade.
Teach:
Teach your kids stories and how to recognize God in their own stories.
Play:
Have fun with telling God stories. Turn your hallway into a God history museum exhibit.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

“But when you yield to the life of the Spirit, you will no longer be living under the law, but soaring above it!” Galatians 5:18 TPT
How often do you find yourself parenting out of fear? Fear of the law? Fear of messing up your child? Fear of your child straying away? Let’s parent with the Holy Spirit, living into the freedom gifted us by Jesus.
Love:
Embrace the freedom Christ offers.
Teach:
Model living in freedom and not fear.

It has been a while since I have done an interview on the podcast. This is a great one to break that streak. Quina Aragon has written a trio of beautiful picture books to help our kids learn about the Trinity and his love. Join the FB group for a giveaway in March of all three books.
Quina’s Bio:
Quina Aragon is an author, editor, and spoken word poet residing in Orlando, Florida, with her husband and daughter. Her three children’s books—Love Made, Love Gave, and Love Can—poetically communicate the Bible’s storyline through a Trinitarian lens of love. Quina has also contributed chapters to numerous books and has written scripts for two short films. She’s had the privilege of working with Christianity Today, The Gospel Coalition, Risen Motherhood, She Reads Truth, Harvest House Publishers, and many more. You can find her on Instagram @Quina_Aragon and at her website QuinaAragon.com.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

This Wednesday is Ash Wednesday, the first day of the Lenten season. Lent is a somber season when we prepare our hearts for the death and resurrection of Jesus. But somber does not have to mean we can't be playful as we teach our kids the significance of the season. in this episode I invited my friend and fellow Connected Families Certified Parent Coach, Katie Wetzel, to share a playful yet deeply significant activity that she does with her family during Lent.
Love:
Jesus loves us so much that he was the final sacrifice needed for our sins.
Teach:
We can bring our sin to Jesus.
Play:
Make your own Lenten crown of thorns.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

Recently released faith-based board book Wonderful, Marvelous, Magnificent You written by Abbey Feldkamp.
Wonderful, Marvelous, Magnificent You offers young children an engaging and colorful tool for teaching them about Jesus in a relatable way. It was crafted as a rhyming story with vivid imaginative and playful scenes to captivate the reader’s attention. It's an offset lithography printed book with durable, hard pages. The illustrations and text are all hand drawn.
From the Author:
Through the pandemic I saw my own children suffer, and I saw other children suffer. I saw their lights diminish and their faith in themselves grow dim. They struggled in school, they struggled finding confidence, and they struggled having success in social interactions because they were shut away from the world for so long. Their confidence was starved and they became uneasy, anxious and uncertain.
I knew I needed to bring them a story about just how amazing and resilient they can be--a beautiful, feel-good rhyming story about how wonderful, marvelous and magnificent kids truly are! This is how the story began.
This book beautifully illustrates just how special God made children of every culture and ability. It is diverse, inclusive, and wholesome.
This resource is a perfect companion to your daily children’s bible—the reader will see themselves reflected in the story with Jesus. It also encourages the reader to use their imagination and understand Jesus in a modern way. Perfect for gifting and reading at home, this will become an heirloom storybook to enjoy, handed down from generation to generation.
Abbey Feldkamp was born and raised in Minnesota. Along with being a children’s author, she is a flower farmer specializing in English roses. When she’s not writing, she’s chasing her kids on the farm, tending her blooms, and caring for her honeybees. She’s married to her high school sweetheart and they have three children. Abbey believes reading is an essential life skill for children, and igniting a passion for that is her goal.

Oh, mama! In this episode I lay it all out: my messy night followed by a messy morning. Life as a parent coach sure isn’t perfect, but I have the tools to take responsibility for my actions and make it right, all while pointing myself and my kids back to Jesus. Then, allowing Him to do the refreshing of my soul.
Your Turn to Play:
Play with and love your child in your misbehavior.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

How can God be our strength when we power through on our own accord? Sometimes it takes accepting our limitations, weakness, and brokenness to embrace God’s strength.
Your Turn to Play:
Play in your weakness, by praising God for being our strength.
You’ve got the Holy Spirit! You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
Have you ever used fear to get your kids to obey? I have! Our kids’ bodies respond to threats and presumed danger in 4 common ways: fight, flight, freeze, and fear. When I look at the times when my kids’ bodies have told them that I am unsafe, I feel compelled to change and grow. I want to reflect God in my discipline of them. I know you do, too. Let’s explore these responses our kids have to fear and look at some biblical examples, as well.
Your Turn to Play:
Teach your kids the 4 responses to fear and play Red Light, Green Light using the 4 responses.
You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
In his work on play, Dr. Stuart Brown describes the 7 properties true play must include: purposelessness, voluntary nature, inherent attraction, freedom from time, diminished self-consciousness, improvisational potential, and continuation desire. In today’s episode, I look at these 7 properties theologically and how embracing them could help us more fully reflect and worship God.
Your Turn to Play:
Reflect on the 7 properties of play and consider these questions:
- Which would be most beneficial to you right now?
- Which is the most challenging?
- Do you practice a spiritual discipline that allows you to experience any or all of these properties?
Verses from the episode:
- Deuteronomy 6:4-9
- Isaiah 53:2
- 2 Samuel 6
- Ecclesiastes 11:8a
- Galatians 1:10

Episode Summary:
This episode is our fourth and final episode of Interview June. I chat with Lee Ann Mancini. I contacted Lee Ann about being on the podcast because my kiddos love Sea Kids and I thought a producer of a show would have some great insight into how to wisely use shows in discipleship. I love Lee Ann’s passion for helping kids know Jesus and helping families to know how to help that happen.
In this conversation, we chat about making discipleship a daily practice and how starting young can make a big difference.
Lee Ann’s Bio:
Lee Ann Mancini is passionate about raising little ones to have a strong foundation in Jesus. Her companies, Raising Christian Kids and Sea Kids, work together to provide biblically-based, award-winning products (books, animation series, curriculum) and services (podcast, free resources) that equip all who are raising the next generation in Christ. It is about the salvation of our children and the preservation of Christianity!

Episode Summary:
This Theology Thursday we look at Acts 16:14. In this verse, we are introduced to Lydia. I love that she sells purple cloth. Are you a purple girl, too? We focus on the phrase, “the Lord opened her heart.” We get to create an environment and relationship with our kids where they want to listen, but God opens their hearts.
Your Turn to Play:
Pray God would open your child’s heart to him.
You can do it, mama!

Do something YOU enjoy with God.
You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
This is the third in a 4-part episode on Parenting for Faith’s 5 Key Tools. This week we look at Chatting and Catching. This is basically prayer, but by not calling it prayer we can help kids get to the heart of it, instead of what they think prayer is supposed to be or what they are supposed to do. Parenting for Faith also has some really beautiful and practical ways to teach kids to hear from God.
Your Turn to Play:
Practice having your kids chat with God, by offering topics that they then silently tell God or whisper in a pillow.

- Deuteronomy 6:4-9
- 1 Samuel 3:1-15

This Theology Thursday we look at Philippians 1.6. This is an encouragement for you mama, that God’s good work in you is not something just to hope for in the future, it has already begun. You already have beauty and goodness in you at play. Lean into that with the help of the Holy Spirit.
Your Turn to Play:
Make a self-portrait and consider the good work that is already in you.
You can do it, mama!

You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
This Theology Thursday we look at Ecclesiastes 3:11 and freeing ourselves from the expectation to be able to answer all of our kids' questions. God has created us with limited capacities to understand him and his plan. We can embrace that and instead create an environment of curiosity and questions while knowing we can trust God to have infinite wisdom and understanding.
Your Turn to Play:
Read 2 pages in the middle of a book your kids don’t know. Ask them to try and figure out the whole story. This is our understanding of eternity. Then read 2 pages from the middle of a book your kids know really well. This is God’s understanding.
You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
This Theology Thursday we look at Matthew 18:15. The Holy Spirit was really showing me what God’s plan for redemptive discipline looks like through this verse. This kind of discipline leaves behind shame and justice-seeking, for humility and service.
Your Turn to Play:
Before disciplining your child, pray for it to be done in humility and service. Then, play together to celebrate God’s redemption.
You can do it, mama!

Be a student of your child. What stage are they in? Can you marvel at God for his logic and order in their development?

Episode Summary:
In this episode, I answer the question I get asked most often: “What age can I start faith conversations/discipling my kids?” Today! Whatever age your child is, start today!
I also introduce my new mini-course, Playfully Faithful Questions, designed to help you engage your kids in more meaningful conversations about God, faith, and Bible stories.
Your Turn to Play:
Ask your kids what they think God’s favorite color is. If they are too young to answer, you answer for them with different options. If they are old enough to talk about it, follow up their answer with other fun questions, building an environment and culture where talking about God is totally normal.

Episode Summary:
In today’s episode, I chat with my ministry friend, Dr. Heather Ingersoll. She has so much experience with ministry with children and their spiritual formation. Heather shares some beautiful and profound thoughts on children’s faith, discipleship, and parenting, as well as Godly Play. I hope that you will find this interview as impactful as I did.
Heather’s Bio:
Heather Ingersoll spent the past 20 years, exploring, researching, and practicing ways to support the spiritual lives of children. She holds a MA in Family Life Education from Concordia University St. Paul and a PhD in Education from Seattle Pacific University. She has experience leading children's ministry programs, supervising early childhood programs, and teaching college level courses in education and children's spirituality. She currently serves as the Executive Director for the Godly Play Foundation where she gets to bring her love for bridging the gap between research and practice to cultivate spaces around the world where children can come close to the mystery of God. She also gets to explore this in her own home in Oregon with her husband and her two sons, Theo (6) and Aidan (2).

Episode Summary:
In this episode, I interview Hannah Pierrou of the Tree House Storyteller. Hannah recently wrote and illustrated a beautiful children’s book that I am excited to share with you.
Hannah’s Bio:
Hannah is a long-time lifestyle photographer, designer, and artist at Hannah Pierrou Photography, LLC. Farm to Film is her debut book as an author & illustrator. Hannah's love for the outdoors and animals has always held a strong place in her heart. Alongside her husband, they are raising her own family in the Colorado foothills. She finds herself daily inspired with a passion for farm life and the countryside. Their world is filled with backyard chickens, two pet dogs, two adorable kittens, and tons of Colorado mountain wildlife. As a designer and lifestyle photographer, Hannah loves sharing the concept of capturing the beautiful creation found in everyday experiences. Her book shares a simple childlike way of doing just that. It is also important for Hannah to utilize her experience as an artist to expose her readers to various design elements such as detail, contrast, movement, composition, shape, and rhythm. In a culture saturated with bloggers and the competItive digital world, her children's book takes the time instead, to capture daily life and elevates the focus to a more genuine conscience.

Episode Summary:
This Theology Thursday we look at Romans 10:17. There are two main points from today’s Scripture. 1) Hearing involves positively responding to what the speaker is saying. 2) Faith requires hearing the message of Jesus, not just the law. We are to point our kids to a relationship with Jesus, not the law.

Episode Summary:
Sometimes liking our kids can make a bigger impact than loving them. In this episode, I take a faith-based look at a quote from The Connected Child, “Research shows that children mimic people they perceive as strong and who like them.”
Your Turn:
1) Reflect or journal on why Jesus likes you.
2) Write down 3-5 reasons you like each of your children.
3) Make a secret handshake with each of your kids.

Episode Summary:
Do you teach your kids to fear God or to love God? Not fear as in the KJV of fear meaning respect, but do you teach them that they have to walk a tightrope between fun and the law in order to please God? Are you personally too busy trying to follow the Old Testament law that you don’t get to enjoy Jesus? 1 John 4:18 says that perfect love casts out all fear.
In this episode, I share a story that God asked me to share with you. I pray it blesses you and encourages you to lean into Jesus and the abundant life that He offers.

Episode Summary:
This Theology Thursday we look at 3 John 1:4. This verse jumped out to me about a year ago and I have been praying it for my kids ever since. Written by John about his spiritual children, commentaries agree that it is wonderful for Christian parents to desire this for their biological and adopted children as well.
Knowing that I can’t ultimately control whether or not my children choose to follow Jesus, I can do my best to present Jesus in the most truthful and authentic way possible and set the Holy Spirit up with soft hearts that desire the abundant life Jesus wants to live with us.
You can do it, mama!

Episode Summary:
Let’s talk about memorizing Scripture! Is it enough? No!! Your kids can memorize the ABC Song, but it doesn’t mean that they can do anything useful with the letters. God calls for Scripture to be in our hearts, not our heads. Play is the way to help littles move God’s Word from rote memorization to hiding it in our hearts.
So, let’s give up memorization and dig into learning and experiencing God’s Word, so that it may take root in our hearts.

Episode Summary:
Let’s look at the second message of the Connected Families Framework: You are LOVED no matter what. With this message, we need to look below our kids’ behavior to what it is like to be our kids? We can then have more empathy and see our kids and their needs.
Through this message, we give our kids a glimpse of God’s incredible and unconditional love. Our children get to experience that our love is not dependent on their behavior - good or bad. That is HUGE!!!

Episode Summary:
In this episode, we talk about Santa and if he can be included in a Christian Christmas. I do not presume to tell you if he SHOULD be allowed, but simply can he.
My answer is yes! And, if I am wrong, I have done it from erring on the side of grace, love, joy, fun, and abundant life. I will live in the freedom of the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and not in the fear of the law, though it does guide and teach me. My heart is for my girls to know and follow Jesus and all of the abundant life he offers, which includes fantasy and their imaginations.

Episode Summary:
Do you ever start reading a book and feel like the author just ripped your thoughts and feelings from your mind and wrote them down much more poetically and eloquently than you could? Then as you read along feel a sense of validation for some crazy, out-of-the-box beliefs you have because someone else was published for sharing them?
Ok, so maybe that is just me, but that is how I felt reading The Gift of Wonder. When I reached out to tell Christine Sine how connected I felt to her book and she responded with an offer to join me on my podcast, I was thrilled.
I pray you are as encouraged by her creative and playful take on spiritual practices as I am, and that you will be inspired to step out-of-the-box with the ways you connect to God throughout your day.
Christine’s Bio:
“Christine Aroney-Sine is the founder and facilitator for the popular contemplative blog Godspace, (godspacelight.com) which grew out of her passion for creative spirituality, gardening and sustainability.
Christine describes herself as a contemplative activist, passionate gardener, author, and liturgist. She loves messing with church traditions and inspiring followers of Jesus to develop creative approaches to spirituality that intertwine the sacred through all of life. She facilitates workshops on contemplative and creative spiritual practices, spirituality and gardening, simplicity and sustainability as well as how to develop a more spiritual rhythm for our lives. She often encourages participants to paint rocks or leaves, plant contemplative gardens, walk labyrinths and create spiritual pathways that draw us into deeper intimacy with God. Christine is inspired by Celtic Christian spirituality, which has opened her eyes to the God who is present in every moment, every experience and every place. She is open to learning from everyone and everything around.”

Episode Summary:
One of my daughters had the “worst day of her life today” and I didn’t. It was hard, but I experienced the Holy Spirit working in my heart, my parenting, and my family.
We all have bad days, but can we as mamas learn to not let our kids’ bad days become our bad days or feel like their behavior is a reflection of our parenting? How do we hold on to Jesus and trust we are doing our best as mamas when we are getting called “the worst mom in the world”? Ultimately, Jesus, but an awesome tool that he is using in my life is the Connected Families’ Framework.
In this episode, I introduce you to the Connected Families’ Framework and the four messages that it is built upon. These are messages that we can seek to share with our kids through our words and actions during peaceful times, conflict, and discipline. These messages point us all to Jesus and his salvific work on the cross. They are:
- You are safe with me.
- You are loved no matter what.
- You are called and capable.
- You are responsible for your actions.

Episode Summary:
This episode is really just some of the thoughts that have been on my heart over the last few weeks about Halloween. I encourage you to follow your convictions, but as Tara Leigh-Cobble of The Bible Recap says, “don’t shout where the Bible whispers and don’t whisper where the Bible shouts.” Halloween and Trick or treating are not in the Bible.
If your family’s version of Halloween involves costumes and candy, I think you should enjoy it and use it as an opportunity to shine the light of Jesus. If you feel convicted otherwise, follow God’s leading, but be open-minded and non-judgemental of families who do not share the same conviction.
God is in control as much on October 31 as he is any other day of the year!
Love ya, mamas! Keep playing!

Episode Summary:
In this bonus episode, I share about a great resource for teaching your elementary-aged kids about church history in a fun way. This is a new book series by Danika Cooley called the Who What Why? Series. It includes three books:
- Who Was Martin Luther?
- What Was the Gutenberg Bible?
- Why Did the Reformation Happen?
This book series has history, culture, theology, humor, and the gospel all in an easy-to-read, fun collection. I love Danika Cooley’s style of writing. It feels like I am listening to a mom playfully telling her kids stories from church history. The book is filled with grace and truth, as Cooley lovingly corrects the poor theology that caused the Reformation and points the reader to the gift of salvation through Christ alone.
Such a great resource for Christian families!

Episode Summary:
This is such a fun conversation with Christie Thomas of Little Shoots Deep Roots. We talk about how small habits can make a big impact and how spiritual parenting can be awkward at times, but grows to become more natural as we begin to add little touch points of faith throughout our days and lives.
Christie’s Bio:
After getting a BSc in Biology, Christie spent her entire adult working life in Children's Ministries until, a few years ago, God called her home to educate her three boys and to run Little Shoots, Deep Roots. She's written several books to help your kids know and love God, including Quinn's Promise Rock, and Fruit Full, a devotional on the fruit of the Spirit.

Episode Summary:
In this episode, I share a theology of creativity and how we can better incorporate that into our lives, our kids, and our faith.
We talk about process art vs product art, plus being made in the image of a creative God. I also share NASA research that proves we are all “creative geniuses” from birth and we talk about ways to practice using that creativity that is still there in all of us.
Verses from the episode:
Deuteronomy 6:4-9
Genesis 1:1
Genesis 1:27
Links from the episode:
“You're 96 Percent Less Creative Than You Were as a Child.”
“We are born creative geniuses and the education system dumbs us down, according to NASA scientists“

Episode Summary:
In this episode, I share about a little mental shift we can make to help us make more time for play. I introduce the ideas of:
micro-play
meso-play
macro-play
mega-play
Play is important, but it doesn’t need to meet certain expectations. It can be quick and easy while still making a positive impact.

Episode Summary:
In this episode, we talk about the history and importance of Sunday School and Children’s Ministry for your family. All of these benefits are to support and equip families as they pursue Christ every day in their homes and in their communities. Children’s ministry is not designed to be your child’s primary discipleship. We all need more than 1 hour of Jesus a week.
Here are the benefits of Sunday School that we discuss:
1) Kids learn that church is a fun, safe place.
2) Children develop relationships with other trusted Christian adults.
3) Kids connect with other Christian kids.
4) Kids can learn from others’ creativity and perspective, not just mama’s.
5) Parents build relationships that can provide resources for helping minister to our kids at home.
6) It reinforces lessons kids learn at home.
7) It provides a safe place for kids to practice having faith discussions outside of the home.
8) It provides a safe place for older children, teens, and adults to express their gifts and serve God and his people.

Episode Summary:
Let’s talk about what play really is. We will look at it both from a scholarly and a Biblical POV.
United Nation’s Committee on the Rights of the Child’s definition:
“‘Play’: Children’s play is any behaviour, activity or process initiated, controlled and structured by children themselves; it takes place whenever and wherever opportunities arise. Caregivers may contribute to the creation of environments in which play takes place, but play itself is non-compulsory, driven by intrinsic motivation and undertaken for its own sake, rather than as a means to an end. Play involves the exercise of autonomy, physical, mental or emotional activity, and has the potential to take infinite forms, either in groups or alone. These forms will change and be adapted throughout the course of childhood. The key characteristics of play are fun, uncertainty, challenge, flexibility and non-productivity. Together, these factors contribute to the enjoyment it produces and the consequent incentive to continue to play. While play is often considered non-essential, the Committee reaffirms that it is a fundamental and vital dimension of the pleasure of childhood, as well as an essential component of physical, social, cognitive, emotional and spiritual development.”
(As defined in UN’s General Comment #17 on article 31)
Biblically play is seen in times of peace, restoration, and celebration. It is also deeply connected to Sabbath which demonstrates trusting God to remain in control as you take time to glorify him through enjoying the life he has given you.
We also look at the concepts of free-play & guided-play.

2 Samuel 6:14

Episode Summary: In this episode we look at play and the important role it plays in a child’s development. The Areas of Development:
cognitive (includes language)
social-emotional
physical
spiritual
Play builds synapses between neurons in the brain, When these connections are not made they are pruned making it more difficult to build later on. If we can build our children’s brains’ connections in ways that glorify God and point them to him when they are young it will be much easier for them to continue on that path.

Episode Summary:
In Episode 003 we discuss 10 tips for introducing your kids to Jesus. Ultimately, it is not our responsibility whether our children choose to follow Christ or not; it is theirs. Even if we do everything right, which we won’t, our kids may choose their own path or take a few detours. Your job is to teach them well, pray for them often, and then, trust God with the rest.
Here are a few tips to help you teach your kids about Christ:
- Keep age-appropriate Bibles and Bible Storybooks around your house. And, read them playfully!
- Pray with your child each night, big bold prayers and tiny little prayers!
- Learn fun blessings to use at mealtimes.
- Apologize to your kids when you make mistakes or lose your cool.

Episode Summary: As a Christian mama you have decided that you want your kids to know and love Jesus. You believe that God, through his Word, has called you to be the one to teach your children and journey with them and the Holy Spirit. So, now what? The most important first step in introducing your kids to Jesus, is you having a vibrant, life-giving relationship with Him. You must spend time with Him. You must know you are loved and you must love Him. When you are closely following Jesus, you won’t be able to stop from sharing Him with your children. Your kids deserve a mama that is in a healthy spiritual place because you will be a better mom with Jesus. But, that is a by-product! God wants a relationship with you, just to have a relationship with you. He is not merely equipping you to serve others or point them to Him. He desperately wants a deep, intimate, and authentic relationship with you, his created, chosen, and loved daughter and friend. You can’t earn more of His love no matter how many devotionals you read, prayers you say, or your children walk with Him. In this episode we will talk about some simple ways to prioritize and nurture your faith.
