Equipping parents and carers to raise God-connected children and teens
Been to Spring Harvest with your kids?
Spring Harvest can be the most incredible week, with so much fun, excitement and many opportunities for adults and children to connect with God during the week. It can be a wonderful springboard or turbo-boost to your child’s relationship with God, but what about when the event ends and the excitement fades?
Events and festivals are only part of the lifetime journey that you are walking with your children.
Parenting for Faith has made a special podcast episode for you to listen to after you’ve got back from Spring Harvest, all about how to build on that momentum and keep nurturing your child’s faith.
Although Spring Harvest may only last a week, helping your children grow in their relationship with God happens in the ordinary moments all year round.
You can listen on any podcast platform or Spotify, or you can now also watch our podcast on BRF Online or YouTube!
