This week’s episode of the Christian Parenting Podcast is such a life-giving conversation, one that will fill your heart and equip you with fresh encouragement for the days ahead. I got to sit down with Hosanna Wong, who is a powerhouse of wisdom and truth. She’s a spoken word artist, pastor, and author, and she joined me to talk about raising kids who know who they are and whose they are.

Hosanna shares her own story of growing up in a ministry family, the challenges she faced with identity and belonging, and the deep healing she found in God’s love. She also gives us a peek into her brand-new children’s book, What God Says About You, and let me tell you, it’s a gem.

Here’s a glimpse of what we cover in today’s episode:

• The importance of repeating truth until it takes root

• How to help your kids find their identity in Christ, not culture

• Why building a church community matters even if it looks unconventional

• Simple ways to navigate big topics like social media with grace and guidance

This is such a rich, encouraging conversation especially for those of us wanting to raise kids who walk in confidence, knowing they are deeply loved by God.
