Today Author and Entrusted Ministries Founder Betsy Corning and I talk about another tool with our Bible study method, Get the Word Out. What's so great is that each of these tools help you think about the Word of God and understand it in a different way! Today, we're talking about chapter summary statements and chapter summaries because recently in my parenting, there was a situation with my son where he was struggling to honor an authority figure in his life. I wanted to guide him with the Word of God, and I was so thankful that I knew to pull out 1 Peter chapter 2 to display Jesus' submission to authority and tell my son what God's expectations of him were. I know I could have Googled it or pulled out my phone, but I think it would've completely distracted us from our conversation. We know you are so busy, but this might be a simple tool that you could enact to help you disciple your children well. We'll keep this episode nice and brief because we wanna equip you and help you get back to all the things!

And don't forget our favorite parenting study: Entrusted with a Child's Heart!

What if one of the most peaceful, steadfast people you knew also happened to be an expert on one of the most overwhelming and confusing aspects of your life? That's exactly what this interview is with our friend Emily. You won't walk away with a list of do's and don'ts from an expert. You're going to get wisdom and encouragement from a real mom that will restore your joy in feeding your family. You'll walk away with your shoulders a little bit less burdened because we want to help redeem an area of life that God has always wanted to bless you with. Instead of adhering to an endless list of evidence, restrictions and shoulds, in part one of this interview, Emily will share how you can still have fun with food. Our whole purpose with the Again Podcast is to bring purpose and joy to the repetition of motherhood, and we think this interview will do just that!

We know a lot of churches and Ministries are thinking about the study they'll be using in the fall. We realize it takes a lot of research before a church commits to a year long study--as it should!

We're so thankful that churches are diligent to find truly biblical resources. We want to explain that Entrusted with a Child's Heart was created to help serve the church staff and provide a ministry for moms, setting the stage for Titus 2 discipleship to occur. This episode is something you could send a pastor, elder, or women's ministry leader to explain why you think and Entrusted would really bless your church!

It'll be brief, but hopefully it'll provide you with the main benefits of bringing this thorough, Scripture-saturated study to your church or group of moms.

We often know what we believe and why we believe it... but how do we explain it to the watching world, to our kids when they are young, and to those we love, but haven't submitted to Christ yet? Daniel Trippie, founder of The Center for Christian Thought and Ethics tells us we don't have to sacrifice love or kindness as we explain truth.
