192: Should You Pressure Kids to Follow Jesus?

Whenever new research comes out, we try to make it meaningful and accessible for you to know if and how it affects your ministry. Join today’s conversation with Rick and Lindsay from the Evangelical Fellowship of Canada’s Center of Research on Church and Faith as they dive into one aspect of the brand new Parenting Faith Research Study.    When asked how much Christian parents agreed with the following statement: “I want my children to make their own religious choices, without pressure from me,” 73% moderately or strongly agreed. What does that mean for the way parents are thinking about passing on faith to their kids? And what does it look like to partner with parents in the ways they’d like faith passed on? Modeling AND teaching faith is the way! Check out ParentingFaith.ca for the research project (and other resources) Want to chat about youth ministry? Give us a shout by emailing [email protected]
