leading littles into faith + the Tiny Truths Illustrated Bible review & GIVEAWAY.

March 26, 2019 marykatemckinney

Our goal as parents, as mothers and fathers, is to help our children uncover who they are in Christ and to lead them into a life of glorifying God. Our children will pursue their own paths, make their own mistakes, and accomplish huge victories, but my hope and prayer is that through it all, they are rooted in the One who made them and loves them more than I ever could.

So how do we lead our little ones into faith? I wanted to share some simple things that we love doing in our home, not only as parents, but also that our kids ask for and really enjoy. Plus I will review the new Tiny Truths Illustrated Bible and give you the opportunity to win your own copy!

Discipline is one of the hardest areas of parenting in my opinion. There are several times a day that I just don't know what to do. It is so easy to let my own emotions and selfishness dictate how I respond to my children when they misbehave. If I am tired, or preoccupied, or upset about a different situation, it often comes out in bad parenting. I will always be the first to admit that I am not a phenomenal parent. I struggle so hard (especially with my 3 year olds!). There are behaviors that I see in my children that I know have come from my quick reactions to them. So how do we parent more effectively?
