Parenting for Faith exists to resource and equip parents, carers, extended families and their churches to help kids and teens develop a lasting and vibrant two-way relationship with God.

🎧 We're back - and we're starting a new journey

A new season of the Parenting for Faith podcast begins this week, and we’re kicking off by talking about something we’re really excited about: our brand-new Five Key Tools journey, launching next week.

Because helping our kids connect with God doesn’t have to mean creating perfect family devotions or getting every conversation right.

Often, it’s much simpler than that.

It’s noticing God in the ordinary moments. Taking the pressure off. And learning a few simple tools that can become part of everyday family life.

That’s what this new journey is all about. 💙

🎧 Watch the full conversation on BRF Online: https://brfonline.org.uk/programs/parenting-for-faith-podcast

Then join us from 15 September as we begin the Five Key Tools journey together.

You haven’t missed the moment. 🙌

If you didn’t have the big “God is with you!” conversation on the first day of school… don’t worry.

There’s tomorrow. And the next day. And the day after that.

Faith isn’t about getting the moment right. It’s about helping our kids notice that God is with them in every step — the exciting ones, the ordinary ones, the wobbly ones and the really hard ones.

It’s every day.

And can I recommend Every Step by Nick & Becky Drake from if you need a tune that’s memorable and full of truth for your child and you (I may be playing it in the kitchen by myself if I have a wobble today).

Have you run a Parenting for Faith course—or completed the Cliff College Certificate in Parenting for Faith?

Your experience could help another church, leader or family take their first step.

Parenting for Faith Champions are people who have used our courses and resources and are happy to help others get started. That might mean answering a question, sharing resources, inviting someone to see a course in action or helping equip leaders in your area.

The role is flexible around your time and capacity, and you’ll have support, resources and connection from the Parenting for Faith team along the way.

We’d love to grow our network of Champions so that more people have someone nearby who can encourage them on their Parenting for Faith journey.

Coffee meetings are entirely optional. ☕😉

Could you be the Champion your area needs?

We are so sad to hear about what happened at Big Church Festival yesterday.

Our hearts are with the person who died and their family and friends, with those who were injured, and with everyone who was there and witnessed what happened or is processing the news of hearing about it afterwards.

And we’ve been thinking particularly about the children and teenagers involved and the parents and carers who are supporting them.

Because they might be feeling all sorts of things today.

They might be frightened or upset. They might be asking questions you don't know how to answer. They might be desperately disappointed that a weekend they’d been looking forward to has suddenly ended.

They might be all of those things.

Or they might seem completely fine and want to talk about something else.

If you're alongside a child or teenager who is trying to make sense of what happened, you don't need to have a brilliant conversation about it. You don't need to explain everything. And you certainly don't need to have all the answers.

You can just be with them.

Listen to what they've heard. Ask what they're thinking. Let them ask the awkward questions. Say “I don't know” when you don't know.

And perhaps, in the middle of it, you can chat to God together too.

Not with a carefully constructed prayer. Just honestly.

“God, this is really sad.”

“I don't understand why this happened.”

“Please look after the people who are hurt.”

“I'm disappointed that we can't stay.”

“Why did you let this happen?”

You can ask him questions or just leave space for God to communicate to you and your child or teenager.

And if your child doesn't want to talk about it? That's okay too. You can leave the door open and come back to it another time.

We're praying today for everyone affected by what happened, and particularly for the children and young people who are making sense of it in their own way.

Blackberries seem to be everywhere already this year. 🌿

Sometimes the ordinary moments we're already living through become the best places to notice God.

Next time you're out picking blackberries, why not tell God about something that feels thorny in your life... and ask him what fruit he can already see growing there.

You don't need to make it into a lesson. Simply let your children overhear you praying, or tell them about it afterwards. It's one small way of creating a window into your own faith.

What everyday moment could become a window this week?

What might God want to show you on your next walk? 🚶‍♀️

Deuteronomy 6 encourages us to talk about God as we go about everyday life. So, while you’re walking together, ask God if there’s anything he wants to point out or remind you of—then share what comes to mind with your child.

It’s a simple way to make space for God in an ordinary moment. And over time, your child might begin doing it too.

Try it on your next walk and see what happens! 🍃
