    How to Cultivate her Faith

    We're talking about cultivating faith in our daughters, especially if they don't like or have a church, youth group, or para church group. Beth talks with Bethany Beal, co-founder of Girl Defined Ministries a popular YouTube channel, conference, podcast and book series for young Christian women.  As you listen, consider: Do you know of a young woman who could serve as a mentor? What are the positive messages you and/or daughter hear and listen to? What is God's view? Do you see this as a stumbling block for faith? Do you feel equipped to have hard conversations about sexuality, identity, and more with her? What can you do to feel more prepared?
