Publisher's Description
The preteen years are hard for everyone—parents and kids! Learn how to navigate these years with grace and love. The preteen years can be perilous. More than ever kids are bombarded with messages that threaten their emotional health, spiritual growth, and faith. And while the market is flooded with resources for raising children, it's remarkably scarce on help for navigating difficult preteen days. Parents can feel alone and at a loss as to how to connect with and guide their growing kids. In Faith That Sticks, Tricia Goyer and Leslie Nunnery share five real-life discipleship building blocks for raising preteens. The book's five key areas—prayer, Bible reading, family relationships, conversation, and service—provide a clear roadmap for parents who feel overwhelmed or unequipped. Using personal stories and examples, Tricia and Leslie's relatable experiences acknowledge that while the journey isn't always easy, it's always worth it. They offer creative and practical ideas and activities that parents, caregivers, or mentors can implement in each of the five key areas, helping them feel more confident in their spiritual roles. If you want to connect with your preteen on a deeper level and watch your kids grow in their faith, you will find Faith That Sticks the encouragement and direction you need!
