Join me for my latest podcast episode, where I'll be tackling a vital question: How can we pass our faith to the next generation?

As a mother of three myself, I understand the desire to not only introduce our children to the Lord but to witness them embrace His love and serve Him for a lifetime.

🌟 Now, I have to admit, it might sound like a lofty goal. However, I firmly believe it's achievable because of my upbringing in a devout Christian household. 

My parents led lives that exemplified their faith, and naturally, I followed their lead. I am truly grateful to come from a lineage of generational Christians, which has blessed me immensely. 

I consider it my responsibility to pass the torch of faith to my own children, but I've encountered some uncertainties along the way.

🙏 Thankfully, the Lord has guided me and taught me invaluable lessons on specific actions I can take to impart this faith to my children.

 In today's episode, I share these insights with all of you. 

Not only will I discuss the strategies I've learned, but I'll also explore relevant scripture that helps us understand how we can put these practices into action in our daily lives as parents.

📖 So, join me in this episode as we delve into passing on our faith to the next generation.
