Being God's Child: A Parent’s Guide

An exploration of ten different ways in which parents can learn or re-learn how to connect with God as his child, written by Parenting for Faith’s ministry lead Anna Hawken.

---

God makes us the most unbelievable offer... to be our parent. Yes, even when we’re all grown up and have children of our own! But many of us don’t live experiencing the connection, guidance and support that’s on offer. Why? Because we’ve forgotten how to be a child.

In this easy-to-read guide, Anna Hawken explores ten different ways to rediscover our ‘child side’. She uses the living, breathing examples of the children in our lives to inspire and challenge us, by looking at things that we sometimes struggle with but they are great at, like:
• asking lots of questions
• messing up without giving up
• sharing their emotions
• asking for help and what they need

Read it on your own or with others, using the individual reflections, questions and small group notes to guide you. These simple ideas will help even the busiest parent to draw closer to God.
