    Modeling Our Values With Our Kids with Trista Dunsmoor

    Modeling Our Values With Our Kids with Trista Dunsmoor

    If you're a Christian and a parent, you know the feeling of wanting your kids to grow up and come to faith in Jesus. Sometimes we can think that is something to think about later in life. The reality is that our kids grow in their understanding of God through thousands of conversations all through their childhood. One thing we are called to do as parents is to share the truths about God and model His love through our relationships with our kids. Trista Dunsmoor joins Scott to share some of her thoughts and experiences in this episode of mission and likeness.

    Where do you find HOPE?

    Where do you find HOPE?

    With the price of just about everything going up, Christians are facing a new battle: what is our hope truly in? Do we find more comfort in low gas prices, cool homes in the summer, and our political party in power or do we find true joy and hope in Who God is and what Jesus has done. This is a daily battle that we shouldn't be trying to face on our own, but as a church body.
