Teaching Kids To Follow Jesus

Check out the SIE Shop for resources to help you raise your kids to follow Jesus: SHE IS EMBOLDENED SHOP: https://sheisemboldened.com/shop/ In this encouraging teaching session, Jen shares practical guidance for raising children with a living, relationship-centered faith in Jesus. She explains the difference between real faith and rule-based religion, then walks through everyday ways parents can disciple their kids through scripture, conversation, confession, forgiveness, gratitude, generosity, and trust during worry or doubt. Jen also offers simple rhythms for intentional family Bible study and prayer, emphasizing that parents do not need to be perfect to lead their children spiritually. The central encouragement is that children need to see authentic faith—one that wrestles, repents, depends on God, and points back to Jesus. (Original talk given at the 2026 Oasis Ministries Conference).
