Entrusting The Faith Eric Rutherford

In this episode of the "Entrusting the Faith" podcast, we delve into a series of resources aimed at equipping parents and children in their journey of faith and discipleship. The episode focuses on materials from Truth 78 Ministry, all authored by David Michael, whom I had the privilege of interviewing on two different occasions.

In this episode, we're diving into the world of storybook Bibles for children. I'm excited to share with you four fantastic resources that I highly recommend for parents looking to instill a love for Scripture in their kids.

This is my conversation with Andrea and Gabe Olson, authors of The Big God Books. In this episode, we discuss The Big God Books and what the catalyst was for writing them. They talk the importance of conversations with your children about how God is at work around you and helping them. They share about cultivating a safe atmosphere where your children can learn how to pray. We also discuss ways that parents can help their children cultivate a biblical worldview.

This is my conversation with Steven Arms, co-author of Milestone to Manhood: A Christian Rite of Passage to Help Your 13 Year Old Son Make the Leap from Boyhood to Manhood. In this episode, Steven discusses the importance of drawing a demarcation point in your son's life between boyhood and manhood. We discuss virtuous masculinity--both what it is and what it isn't. Steven also shares some of the basic steps necessary for a rite of passage weekend for your son or grandson.

This is my conversation with Ken Harrison, volunteer chairman and CEO of Promise Keepers. In this episode, we discuss Ken's book, "A Daring Faith in a Cowardly World: Live a Life Without Waste, Regret, or Anything Unfinished". Ken talks about why it is important for believers to understand they are called to something. He shares about waiting and how the Lord uses waiting within the framework of our call. He also challenges us to think about what we will tell Jesus we did with our lives.

This is my conversation with pastor and author Mike Novotny. In this episode, we discuss Mike's new book, What's Big Starts Small: 6 Ways to Grow Great Faith. He talks about six threats to our growth and walk with the Lord. He shares about what we can do when we feel stuck in our faith. Mike also talks about what we can do as believers to take the next step in building our faith and walk with Christ.
