Visionary Family Ministries seeks to build the church through the global reformation of family discipleship. While they provide many tools to work towards this goal, their podcast is a great resource to start to explore.
Dr. Rob and Amy Rienow provide Christian parenting, marriage, and family advice through their podcast Family Vision. The Rienows understand the sad reality that children and teens can face serious issues with depression, anxiety, trauma, self-harm, or addiction. Unfortunately, the list can go on- making life seem pretty bleak for the families of these children in crisis.
This week’s parent resource is a podcast from Family Vision entitled A Child Crisis is a Family Crisis. This is just one podcast in a three-part series about how to care for children amid a crisis.
In this episode, the Rienows encourage parents and grandparents to avoid the “fix the kid” mindset and instead approach a child crisis as if it were a family crisis. When a child is hurting it is all hands on deck. Families need to adopt the marine mindset of “no man left behind. Learn more about the practical applications of this mindset for your own family here.
