How to Plant Faith in a Child’s Heart - Spiritually Fit Today

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and guest Mrs. Thimijan. In this episode they explore how to weave faith into a preschooler’s everyday life so it becomes a lasting heart-level foundation. Mrs. Thimijan emphasizes love first, using music, visual object lessons, daily small moments, and prayer to move faith from the head to the heart. 4 R practical next steps - Read: Read Proverbs 22:6: "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it." - Reflect: Ask a simple question like “Where does Jesus live?” and let the child point to their heart; notice what that means for them today. - Respond: Pray a short prayer — “Lord, help this child know they are loved by you; grow their faith one small step at a time. Amen.” - Reveal: Demonstrate the truth by creating one daily faith moment (a short prayer, a bedtime story, an object lesson such as an egg to represent new life, or playing a worship song together).
