FOR CAREGIVERS
We provide resources to caregivers to help them confidently communicate their faith values to the next generation.
The Faithful Formation Project is for every kind of parent and caregiver (and the ministry professionals who lead them). We recognize that raising faithful kids is challenging and even sometimes scary, and we provide well-researched, therapeutic, progressive, and inclusive tools that both caregivers and professionals can use with confidence to communicate faith to the next generation. The Faithful Formation Project is for meant to resource and equip ministry professionals to support faithful formation in the families they serve. We recognize the ministry landscape since 2020 has changed drastically, and the spiritual load on church leaders can be heavy. Below you will find well-researched, therapeutic, progressive, and inclusive tools to use with confidence in your ministry as you communicate faith to caregivers and to the next generation.
BOOKS ABOUT CHURCH
Most of us have our own complex history with church, yet faith communities continue to be the primary avenue for faith teaching and expression. If you have struggled to know how to talk to your children about the value of church, this resource is for you. We have reviewed three books written for families about church--how churches work, the people there, what we can expect from church, and what we celebrate about church.
