Instilling God-Given Qualities Into Your Children

Instilling God-Given Qualities Into Your Children

Parenting can be a fun adventure but it’s also inconvenient at times. Moms and dads need to prioritize what’s most important for their family and be intentional about nurturing the God-given character traits in their children -- things like joy, creativity, playfulness, curiosity, and more. Melissa Hannigan illustrates how family life can also be messy, and that’s a good thing where you work through issues and problems together, and grow in the process.
