Episode #134 "Raising Up the Next Generation, PART ONE: Unshakeable Kids" with guest speaker, Lauren Gaines

Welcome to the BE ENCOURAGED! Podcast! I am your host, Jackie Brindle!  This is episode 134.  To recap, the last two episodes were an encouragement to the seeds we set for our children will impact the next generation, whether that’s in modeling behaviors, owning our own faith, or through the prayers we say with them and on behalf of our children/or the children you are taking care of.  For most of us, we are in a season of a new school year, which means new phases in parenting and teaching the next generation.  My prayer is that we raise up the next generation to not only be resilient but also to flourish! As a parent, teacher, aunt, and being a part of a community, I want to know how can I be a part of this movement? What can I do to help support and foster an environment that develops emotionally healthy and strong children in a world where discerning the truth and connecting with the next generation is needed now, more than ever. That’s why the next two episodes are titled — Raising Up the Next Generation (to be Unshakeable, Resilent, and Flourishing). You will listen in to incredible conversations from women who have specialized backgrounds and credentials in the world of psychology and research around this topic!
