We sit down with Matt Markins on this week’s podcast. Matt provides us with a synopsis of his latest book, The Faith of Our Children. He gives highlights from his research on what is working in the church to bring about lasting faith in children, and he explains the risks of not implementing an intentional plan of discipleship. He describes the three “Bs”—belong, believe, and become—which seem to have the greatest impact on children’s faith. Matt emphasizes the importance of relational equipping of parents, and he shares his findings on how children’s ministry leaders spend their time. Finally, Matt recommends resources for ministry leaders who want to dive deeper into relational connection with parents and intentional discipleship.
