Supporting Your Preteen's Faith Journey

8/18/2025
Preteens are kids who are in-between childhood and teenagers — they are experiencing a lot of growth & development, often with high emotions, but their maturity lags behind. Parents need to monitor & limit preteen internet use, ask more questions (and lecture less), and maintain faith traditions such as attending church, praying over their kids, and reintroducing them to God’s Word.

Reviving the Church to Change the World (Part 2 of 2)

8/15/2025
Based on his book, Renaissance, Os Guinness calls the current generation the “crunch generation” because the many challenges facing today’s world are converging quickly and need resolution. He asks Christians to pay “focused attention” to listening to non-believers around them in order to connect. Os advises believers to think deeply for themselves when it comes to loving God with their minds. When witnessing, they must ask questions to those questioning Christianity, rather than making statements, allowing the non-believer to think and come to their own discovery of salvation in Jesus.
