Parenting isn’t just about getting through each day—it’s about preparing our children for life. That’s why I’m thrilled to announce my upcoming book, Foundations for Life: 11 Essential Skills for Raising Responsible, Capable Kids. 📖
This guide is inspired by the skills I want my kids to learn before their teens, so they can grow and demonstrate wisdom and response-ability as they navigate adolescence and beyond. It’s not a one-size-fits-all blueprint but a set of intentional suggestions for parents raising children aged 5 to 12, with flexibility to fit any family’s rhythm—whether daily or just weekends.
💡 A Sneak Peek at the 11 Skills:
Biblical Wisdom and Core Values ✝️
Financial Literacy and Management 💵
Digital and AI Literacy 🤖
Online Safety and Digital Etiquette 🌐
Fitness and Health Awareness 🏃♂️🍎
...and more!
As parents, we’re called to be intentional about teaching our children foundational skills and godly values—not just in one-time lessons, but woven into daily life.
📜 Deuteronomy 6:7 (NIV) reminds us: "Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up."
As I test and refine these skills monthly with my family, I’ll integrate real-life feedback into the book to make it even more valuable for parents.
📅 This book is coming your way toward the end of the year! 🎉
