Description: Raising Disciples by Natalie Frisk, Marv Penner How do we raise our kids to follow Jesus? FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Children and youth will just "catch" the faith of their parents, right? Not necessarily. Talking with kids about Jesus no longer comes naturally to many Christian parents. In Raising Disciples, pastor Natalie Frisk helps us reconnect faith and parenting, equipping parents to model what following Jesus looks like in daily life. Filled with authenticity, flexibility, humor, and prayer, Frisk outlines how parents can make openings for their children to experience God in their daily lives. As curriculum pastor at The Meeting House, one of the largest churches in Canada, Frisk calls parents who follow Christ to ask the big questions about the spiritual formation of children and teens. In practical and thoughtful ways, she equips parents to disciple their kids in various stages of childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. Raising Disciples will awaken parents to the possibly of Jesus-centered parenting and encourage us to engage in the lost art of discipling our own kids.

I love Natalies practical approach to living an authentic faith that values the Bible, honors kids, and equips parents to boldly love Jesus. She helps parents understand the developmental stages of childhood and how Jesus is understood at each level. Ill be sharing this as a resource!"--Brenda L. Yoder, speaker, licensed mental health counselor, educator, and author of Fledge: Launching Your Kids without Losing Your Mind"For the past few years, I have tried to simplify and share the story of the gospel with small children, and I have relied heavily on Natalie Frisks generous insight, expertise, and wisdom. In Raising Disciples, I recognize the same generous spirit, enthusiasm, and love that I appreciate so much about her. In this book, she offers incredibly thoughtful, practical, and personal ways to not only help kids become disciples of Jesus but also examine our own lives as the adults responsible for helping those kids experience Jesus in a true and lasting way."--Tim Penner, coauthor and illustrator of The Tiny Truths Illustrated Bible"Help! Thats usually what I find myself saying--okay, maybe yelling--when it comes to figuring out ways I can bring faith alive in my childrens hearts and minds. Raising Disciples is that answer to my SOS cry. How do we make sure our little people start grasping the importance of their faith in Jesus? Natalie Frisk does a great job of creating a lifeline, with helpful tips on how to parent in a Jesus-centered manner. She reminds us that our children are some of the most important disciples we will ever release into the world."--Maggie John, host and senior executive producer of 100 Huntley Street"The first and most important task of Christian parents is to raise their children to be faithful disciples. Yet few Christian parents actually make this a high priority, with the result that our children are leaving the church in their teens and early twenties at alarming rates. In this well-written book, Natalie Fisk combines biblical insight with a wealth of practical and spiritual wisdom. She seasons this with a healthy sprinkling of humor and great storytelling to inspire all who work with children to effectively carry out this responsibility. Whether you are a parent, a childrens pastor, a volunteer, or just someone who cares deeply about the future of the church, Raising Disciples is a book youre going to want to read, thoroughly digest, and most importantly, put into practice."--Gregory Boyd, founder and senior pastor of Woodland Hills Church and author of Cross Vision"The most significant spiritual responsibility of any generation is the spiritual well-being of the generation that follows. In Raising Disciples, Natalie Frisk outlines how intentionality is the key to raising disciples. May God find us faithful in living out and then, by Gods grace, reproducing a form of discipleship that accurately reflects the likeness of Jesus."--Marv Penner, executive director of the Coalition for Youth Ministry Excellence, from foreword Details ISBN1513802585 Author Marv Penner Short Title RAISING DISCIPLES Publisher Herald Press (VA) Language English ISBN-10 1513802585 ISBN-13 9781513802589 Format Paperback DEWEY 268.432 Year 2019 Subtitle How to Make Faith Matter for Our Kids UK Release Date 2019-09-01 Imprint Herald Press Publication Date 2019-09-17 Audience General Illustrations Illustrations Pages 208 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
