Randy Hain, the author identifies seven lessons for building faithful kids:
1. Modeling strong faith and prayer.
2. Engage and guide kids through life’s complexities.
3. Encourage independent thinking and creativity.
4. Encourage them to dream.
5. Don’t try to keep up with the Jones.
6. Encourage gratitude.
7. Embrace old-fashioned thinking.
Now head over there and see exactly what Randy means by these.
