Parenting, Poverty and Progress: a Free Family Discipleship Resource
This brand new free resource will help you talk to your children about big issues such as poverty and caring for the world around them.
If you’re a parent, caregiver, grandparent, children’s worker, or you play some part in teaching or raising children, you’ve probably found yourself thinking, ‘how can I raise children to care about the world around them?’ God calls us to love our neighbour, but what does that mean in practice? How can we explore that and exercise it in our own families? How can we fire up children to live out their faith and make a positive difference in the world?
Parenting, poverty and progress is a set of free resources for individuals, groups and churches, in which we tackle these questions and provide some tools to start putting their answers into practice.
