Ep. 103 More Than Sunday: Living a Faith They Can See

💡 Episode Summary

Is your faith visible to your kids outside of Sunday mornings? In this episode of Training Them Wisely, Rene and Rebekah explore what it means to live a faith that’s consistent, contagious, and grounded in real life.

From quiet prayers to big conversations, everyday moments matter. Faith is formed not just through what we say—but how we live when no one else is watching.

You’ll walk away with encouragement, Scripture, and practical ways to help your kids see that Jesus is real… not just at church, but at home, in the car, and in the middle of life’s mess.

🧭 What You’ll Hear

• 📖 Why doing the Word matters more than just hearing it (James 1:22)

• 🏡 How to bring faith into daily rhythms—mealtimes, nature walks, bedtime, and beyond (Deuteronomy 6:6–7)

• 💔 How grace and humility when we mess up speak volumes (Psalm 51:17)

• ❓ Ways your faith can spark spiritual curiosity in your kids (1 Peter 3:15)

• 🛠 Practical ideas for praying out loud, modeling trust, and responding with peace in everyday situations

📖 Key Scriptures

• James 1:22 – “Do not merely listen to the word… Do what it says.”

• Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – Talk about God “when you sit, walk, lie down, and get up.”

• Psalm 51:17 – “A broken and contrite heart… you will not despise.”

• 1 Peter 3:15 – “Always be ready to give an answer for the hope that is in you.”

❤️ Encouragement for Parents

You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be present. Your faith doesn’t need a spotlight—it shines best in the margins of everyday life.

Ask yourself:

“If my kids never heard a sermon, what would they know about God from watching me?”

🙏 Closing Prayer Highlight

“Lord, help us to live a faith that speaks even when we say nothing…” This short prayer wraps the episode with grace, purpose, and encouragement to invite Jesus into the everyday.
