Discipling Our Kids in a Divided Age (Part 2) | Episode 133

Podcast

Discipling our kids in a divided age requires faith and discernment. As parents, we need wisdom.

In this episode, Carole Joy Seid continues her conversation with her son, J.J. Seid. (If you missed part one, check out episode 132.)

Carole and J. J. discuss how to handle social media with our kids. They share the challenge of finding a place to walk between prematurely letting our children have too much freedom or sheltering them from the realities of life in the modern world.

We all must cultivate discernment to be able to disciple our kids through these challenging topics and decisions. J. J. provides great book suggestions for you to read as well.

In this episode, you will hear about:

The importance of guarding our children’s hearts and minds in a media-saturated worldWhy thoughtful limits on social media and smartphones can be a gift of protection
How to cultivate discernment so our children engage culture wisely rather than fearfully
The value of equipping teens with biblical wisdom through meaningful books and rich conversations
Why truth must always be spoken with humility, ethics, and Christlike love in a divided culture
Preparing our families to stand courageously for the gospel, even when faithfulness comes at a cost
