Welcome back to the kitchen table. Today's episode continues the series on building our foundations rooted in God's word. Parenting can be a challenging journey, especially when our children grapple with fear. Bethany explores the significance of anchoring our motherhood in gospel truth while acknowledging the abundance of opinions and advice out there.
Through scripture, word pictures, and practical strategies, Bethany offers opportunities to help your children navigate the thoughts that cause fear by pivoting them back to what God says and the truth he offers—helping our children navigate. Instead of merely helping them understand why they feel afraid, we should strive to link their fears to the truth of God's Word. By doing so, we guide them toward a solid foundation built on the promises of God.
By building a foundation rooted in gospel truth, we can help them navigate through fear and anxiety. Remember, God knows our children intimately and invites us to seek Him through prayer and rely on his wisdom. As we shift our focus from worldly advice to God's promises, we equip our children with the tools necessary to combat fear with unwavering faith.
