How do you know what you can trust these days?

These are just a few of the resources I’ve used in the past 6 years as I begin to disciple and build a strong faith foundation in my children. Studies show that parents have the largest influence on their children’s lifelong faith choices. Even if a child goes to a Christian school, that doesn’t make that much of a difference. Faith must be modeled by and practiced with parents for it to truly take root.
