The Lie Our Kids Feel About Fear (and How Parents Can Tell a Better Story) with Courtney Reissig

from Trade a Lie for a Truth · host heidileeanderson

Ever wondered how to talk to kids about scary things—storms, sickness, or other frightening moments—and they wonder if God is mad at them? Or maybe you’ve struggled with that yourself as an adult. It’s easy to carry this lie that when bad things happen, God must be angry, punishing, or absent. But the truth of the matter is God is present in the storms, big or small. He never stops loving His children, even when life feels out of control, and He works through hard moments to show His promises and hope. Join me as I break this down with Courtney Reissig, a Bible teacher, author, and mom of four, who opens up about the storm that scared her kids, and together, let's learn how we as families can talk about fear, trust, and God’s love in a way that’s relatable, practical, and full of hope.   Connect more with Courtney: https://courtneyreissig.com https://www.instagram.com/courtneyreissig Check out her children's book, Seth and the Very Scary Storm: https://rstyle.me/+RzJlnyLAnFnfp2kYLfyTUw   Connect more with Heidi: https://www.instagram.com/heidileeanderson/ https://heidileeandersonministries.com Grab her new 100-day devotional, All In, All Yours: https://rstyle.me/+11Ii1owgccFkGPU0t1uz3w

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
