281. What Does it Look Like for A Toddler, a Tween, a Teenager
Welcome back to the kitchen table. In John 20, the story of Thomas gives us a beautiful example of how God approaches correction. When Thomas doubted Jesus' resurrection, Jesus didn’t respond with frustration or rebuke. Instead, he led with a question.
Bethany encourages listeners that this method of leading correction with a question is something we can apply when guiding our children. At different ages, the approach may look different, but the heart of it remains the same.
For younger kids, it might look like asking simple questions: "What do you think Jesus would want you to do?" With older children, we can dive deeper, encouraging them to reflect on their actions and how their faith plays a role.
But the heart of the matter is this: God leads correction with a question, and we are called to do the same, guiding them with love and grace.
