Spiritual Parenting

It’s hard enough to train kids to behave, but good behavior isn’t what Jesus calls for in the Bible. He wants hearts and souls that are shaped in vibrant faith and love toward
God and others. How can parents cultivate this in their children? Spiritual Parenting is a six-part DVD series that empowers parents to be the primary nurturers of their children’s faith and teach them how to create a home environment that God can use to work in their children’s lives. Your family can be transformed when you learn how to create space for God-encounters in everyday life.

Doing the Right Thing (Making Moral Choices in a World Full of Options)

“Doing the Right Thing” explores the ethical and moral breakdown that is hitting culture from all sides, how Christians should think about ethics and how to respond in a way that is winsome and Christ-like. Each session consists of a 30-minute video and a 30-minute group discussion. The videos are produced by The Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview and are hosted by Brit Hume, Chuck Colson, Robert George and other distinguished panelists. Through panel discussions, interviews, and live student questions it raises ethical issues in a non-condemning but challenging way, stimulating thought, discussion, and action. The classroom discussion that follows focuses on how ethical and character issues relate to life at home, school, and the workplace.
