Our message with Cam today highlights the importance of guiding children in their faith journey by looking at Jesus' own growth. Luke 2:41-52 recounts how Jesus, at twelve years old, stayed behind in the temple, engaging with religious teachers and demonstrating remarkable understanding. His parents, initially anxious, found him in deep discussion about spiritual matters. The passage provides key principles for parenting in faith. As parents, one of our responsibilities is to point our children to Jesus and help them grow in their faith. As easy as it sounds, it could be quite challenging to figure out how to do that. Parents can take encouragement from this story, trusting that intentional discipleship and exposure to God’s teachings help children grow in faith. 

 Questions for Reflection: 

1) What are you modeling to your child when it comes to faith? 

2) Do you trust God with your child?
