Equipping our kids in a world of ‘my truth’
Introducing Timeless Parenting Episode 27.
We live in a world that is generally happy to let people live with ‘my truth’ and ‘your truth’ … until they decide that on certain topics, the Christian world view is not just outdated, but harmful. So how can Christian parents raise children who know the truth, beauty and goodness of the Christian world view and also think critically about the other ideas they encounter?
In the latest episode of Timeless Parenting, we spoke with Elizabeth Urbanowicz from Foundation Worldview who gave us plenty of practical ideas and encouragement.
We discussed questions like:
- What is a world view?
- What are the blessings of having a 'big story' to live in?
- How do we and our kids find out what is real and true?
- How can we foster evidence-based trust in our kids?
- How should we go about answering our children's tough questions?
- How can we show our children that the Bible is true?
- How should we explain the relationship between science and the Bible?
- What if we feel inadequate to answer our kids' questions?
This episode is full of great insights and ideas that will encourage and equip parents to help their children think biblically and critically about the ideas they come across.
