All of those forgettable conversations you have with your kids are vitally important because they will potentially be the foundational groundwork for their spiritual lives and maturity. If you haven't heard our Parents 5 Job series, I recommend you give that a listen as we discuss how God would have His ambassadors teach and interpret and counsel and train.

And now let's talk with Natasha Crane about how to keep your kids on God's side. There's no knowledge in all the universe more important than the knowledge of God, and this is why Natasha wrote her first book, Keeping Your Kids on God's Side.

There are lots of other kinds of conversations that people have around faith and Christianity that get really into the weeds, but what are the ones, if I had to summarize them, that parents most need to be able to talk about with their kids, the biggies?

Yeah, my first book was called Keeping Your Kids on God's Side, and it walks you through 40 of the biggest challenges to faith today for our kids, and I know 40 sounds like a huge, huge, giant book, but the chapters are only about four or five pages each, and that's how it is with all my books, it's a parent -to -parent kind of voice, just to introduce you to what the world is saying and what your kids need to hear about, because like you said, a lot of times parents, they understand, I need to be able to answer my kids' questions, and they see that as important, but they don't necessarily realize the importance of knowing what the world will ask their kids, and proactively bringing those questions to them.

You know, we've been talking a lot about preparing our kids to contend for the faith. We've heard from parents who know the truth, but who are struggling translating that to their kids. We've talked with parents who are, they themselves are new to the truth, and they're having a difficult time kind of starting from scratch with their kids.

All the forgettable conversations we have that are soaked with God's Word not only have God's power to succeed according to God's plan in the moment, they also are being multiplied as they add to your kids' cumulative knowledge of God, and they convince your children of your character and devotion to God.

Preach the gospel often, regularly to them, and I think you're going to be in good shape. If I have a kid who says, I believe, I'm going to encourage that faith, I'm going to examine that faith, I'm going to come alongside of them and say, now you've been sinning in this particular area, and this is what the gospel can do and help you get rid of that sin.

Welcome back to our series on helping your children discover God's will for their lives. Last time, we laid a broad foundation and discovered that God's greatest purpose for your kids is that they partner in the gospel.

Help your children understand the natural consequences of their life choices and repeat those truths frequently. And finally, number eight, remind your children of lessons learned. 2 Thessalonians 2 .4 sounds so much like a mother speaking to her child.

And then after reading her first book, Keeping Your Kids on God's Side, I contacted her straight away. And she was gracious enough to not only come onto the show and do a three -part episode about children's devotionals, her book, and a parenting Q &A, but she also allowed me to join the launch team for her new book, Talking With Your Kids About God.
