With anxiety and depression amongst children at an all-time high, this episode will equip you to help prevent that path from happening with your children. Whether two or seventeen and all in between, your children must feel like they are valuable and you must continually help them see ways they can be on purpose for the Lord too. It’s built into every person to know they aren’t just loved but also needed. Get practical ideas on helping your children feel more on purpose and valuable. This will combat the natural selfishness that can grow in your children, erode any entitlement attitudes, and give them a desire to serve the Lord with their life. In a world where the younger generations are more depressed than ever; this focus will help them evade this path that is far too normal today.
